After two years of open war with the all-powerful Dominion, the Splinter rebellion has been driven into its most bitter dregs in a century. Their colonies falling one after another, it seems as if it’s just a matter of time before the noose closes around their necks. Vaughn Donovan, the wearer of the all-powerful Eye, still lurks as the greatest force in the galaxy. His plots to build new armies to hunt his enemies threatens the meager rebellion like the tick of a time bomb. As tensions rise among the surviving rebels, they struggle to find common ground in their failing fight against their pursuers. And yet, there remains one glimmer of hope. Kyle Griffin has escaped from the Dominion’s captivity, and his survival serves as a beacon that the war is never over while he draws breath. Uncertain of the scope of his own Celestial power, and tortured by the tragedies of loss and failure, does he still have the will to save their cause and bring peace to the galaxy? The fate of all may ride on the answer.
