In the 22th Century, the people of the Solar System have banded together against
an alien invasion. Unfortunately, they’re losing—badly.
As the only Natural remaining in the genetically engineered officer corps of the
United Planet’s fleet, Henry Gallant has unique mental abilities that have
proven essential to the defense against the Titan invaders. Nevertheless his
fellow officers lack faith in him, and worse, he has angered prominent men by
speaking truth to power.
Despite this, Admiral Collingsworth has given him command of the Warrior, the
most advanced stealth warship in the UP arsenal, and ordered him to the alien’s
main base to spy, intrigue, and disrupt their war capacity. Gallant’s mission
leads to risky battles and painful choices, but no choice is more personal, or
intimate, than the choice to face one’s own death. And for Henry Gallant—a
flawed young man in a hopeless situation against overwhelming odds—a dreadful
decision looms before him.
He has only one saving grace—he is unafraid.
