I can't juggle starships. I make the ones who can."


The battle with the Iron Legion has left The Last Horizon battered and broken, drifting in space. Varic needs an exceptional Engineer to fix his ship, and there's only one person for the job: Mell, the master Aether Technician.


But first, they have to break her out of prison.


Mell has been captured by the Advocates, a group of super-powered vigilantes who dominate their corner of the galaxy. They are led by Starhammer, an invincible champion with a personal obsession with Mell.


The Last Horizon may be crewed by the greatest heroes in the galaxy, but even they have to be careful with Starhammer. Every time he survives a battle, he grows stronger.


In another life, Varic saw the end of that road. If he lets Starhammer become too powerful, the galaxy is doomed.
