Summary | A hidden corner of space is swarming with lethal alien technology, created by a long-dead race called the Jain, a danger to all sentient life. It's guarded by Orlandine, in her state-of-the-art weapons station, with only an alien intelligence to share her vigil. But she doesn't share everything with Dragon... Orlandine is hatching a plan to obliterate this technology, removing its threat forever. Meanwhile, humanity and the alien prador empire keep a careful watch over this sector of space, as neither can allow the other to claim its power. However, things are about to change. The Jain might not be as dead as they seemed, and interstellar war could be triggered at anytime. |
