John David Anderson returns with the conclusion to the epic coming-of-age adventure that began in Stowaway—a riveting and heartfelt search for hope and home, family and future, in a galaxy ravaged by war.

Following the events of Stowaway, Leo, his father, and his brother have been separated once again, and Leo is more confused than ever in the wake of the revelations about their alliance with the Aykari. Uniting with his pirate friends, it's up to Leo to reunite his family and find some way to save them, and possibly the entire planet, before it's ripped to pieces.
