The Veyr Continuance has destroyed three human systems, yet it claims no territory and offers no terms. Its fleets strike star-gates and sunspindles, erasing the machinery that binds seventy-four inhabited worlds into a civilization.
Fleet commander Mara Venn can stop the collapse only by welding rival planetary navies into a single force. But every victory exposes a deeper truth: the Veyr are fighting to protect the stellar nurseries where their young develop, and humanity's most effective weapon would burn those nurseries sterile.
As carrier engineer Tovan Rhee keeps damaged ships and refugee convoys alive, alien strategist Ilyr-of-Nine-Reefs discovers that the invasion may be creating the very extinction threat it was meant to prevent. Across shattered orbits, failing supply lines, and fleets large enough to darken tactical skies, three enemies race toward one decisive battle beyond the Burning Line.
Humanity can win. The question is what kind of species will survive the victory.
