Die Ruul haben ihre Offensive erneut aufgenommen. Aus der Not heraus, die entstandenen Lücken schnell zu schließen, entscheidet sich das terranische Militär, auch weniger geeignete Rekruten einzuziehen und in Freiwilligenregimentern zu organisieren. Schlecht ausgerüstet und nur unzureichend ausgebildet, versehen diese Einheiten als Garnisonstruppen weit hinter den eigenen Linien ihren Dienst, um reguläre Truppen für den Einsatz an der Front freizustellen.

Der Krieg eskaliert. Die Ruul drängen an allen Fronten gegen die Verteidigungslinien der Koalition und man ist nur mit Mühe in der Lage, die Stellungen zu halten. Aufgrund der hohen Verluste an Personal und Material sind Menschen und Til-Nara gleichermaßen händeringend auf der Suche nach neuen Verbündeten. Zu diesem Zweck laden sie die Delegationen mehrerer anderer Völker zu einer Konferenz ins MacAllister-System ein, um über ein gemeinsames Vorgehen gegen die Ruul zu beraten. Doch diese wissen über die Tagung und deren Ziel längst Bescheid und schmieden ihre eigenen dunklen Pläne. Und noch während die Konferenz tagt, holen die Ruul zu einem vernichtenden Schlag aus.

Sturmwolken des Krieges ziehen erneut am Horizont auf.

Ende des 21. Jahrhunderts hat die Menschheit ihre Streitigkeiten größtenteils beigelegt und sucht ihren Platz inmitten der Sterne.

It began with two men. They came from very different worlds - entirely different universes, in fact - and they met in a virgin forest on a duplicate planet Earth. Neither of them had expected it, but both of them realized how important the first contact with any other transuniversal human civilization might be. But something went wrong. Neither side knows who shot first. But both the magic-using civilization of Arcana and steel-and-steam age Sharona, with its psionic Talents, think it was the other side.

Arcana has never encountered another intelligent species while exploring scores of other worlds. No cities, no vast empires, no civilizations, and no equivalent of their own dragons, gryphons, spells, and wizards. But all of that is about to change. It seems there is intelligent life elsewhere in the multiverse. Other human intelligent life, with terrifying new weapons and powers of the mind...and wizards who go by the strange title of ''scientist''.

Despite her role as a fleet admiral and protector of a planetary system, Kris is still beholden to her great-grandfather King Raymond's commands. She has been personally selected for a mission that will, should she succeed, save millions of lives. The Peterwald Empire is in the midst of civil war. On one side is the tyrannical empress; on the other is the last person Kris ever wants to see again: Grand Duchess Vicky Peterwald. Due to their shared history, the emperor believes Kris can mediate between the factions and bring about peace.

On the worlds of the Iron Belt, the heavily industrialized sector near the Confederation's Core, massive shipyards operate around the clock, producing the great vessels that can end the war. The Union knows it cannot win the economic struggle with its wealthier, more productive enemy, and Sector Nine, its feared spy agency, is not idle. Their focus is not on the front lines, the ravaged border between the two nations, but far off, beyond the Rim, in the strange, militaristic realm known as the Alliance.

Earth Two. A new home for the survivors of the fleet, the men and women who battled against seemingly insurmountable odds to survive the assault of the First Imperium and to destroy the homicidal Regent, the artificial intelligence committed to their destruction. They have prospered in the years since their arrival, adapting the technology of the First Imperium to build a new and prosperous republic. But as the fear of the First Imperium recedes, cracks have begun to appear, conflicts looming that threaten to destroy all they have worked to achieve.

But the more Torin learns about the relationship between the Elder and Younger races, the more she fears war might be unavoidable.
