The sixth book in an action-packed new SF adventure series.
The Eternal Emporer was dead, and the five members of the Privy Council ruled in his place. But they quickly discovered that their power would collapse around them if they could not locate the Emporer's secret source of Anti-Matter Two, the economic keystone of the Empire. And so they sent a team of crack commandos to capture Sten, one of the late ruler's few surviving confidantes.
But Sten - as usual - had his own agenda. For he knew something about the Eternal Emporer that would shake the Empire down to its foundations. And to play his part, all Sten had to do was kill the five most powerfull beings in the universe . . .
