In this epic saga, the extermination of Earth looms ominously on the horizon. Brace yourself as Basil Wenceslas, the chairman of the Hansa, leads humanity down a treacherous path of irrational decisions. His callous treatment of the Hansa colonies and the Roamers, coupled with his steadfast refusal to aid a beleaguered Theroc, has sowed the seeds of animosity amongst Earth's adversaries. And these enemies are ones that the Hansa cannot afford to have.
Wenceslas finds himself floundering in the face of a soldier rebellion by the cunning soldier compies. These insidious beings steal ships and mercilessly slaughter soldiers, leaving the military in disarray.
