The Trillionaires Are At It Again! Can Pirates Save Us?
“A hard science fiction tour de force, populated by memorable characters in a tale of intrigue, adventure, and irresistible market forces.” —Linda Nagata
Trillionaire oligarchs jockey for control of space resources, while rogue AIs prowl the Internet. Meanwhile, a dangerous alien technology—the Fracture—has fallen into the hands of pirates. The balance of power, already precarious, has tumbled Cislunar space into an undeclared war. Now, in a race against time, the crew of the CV Defender must track the pirates to their lair before the Fracture destroys the entire Solar system. But in a world this complex, who, exactly, are the good guys?
