An absorbing standalone adventure set in space, set in the world of Michael Cobley's bestselling Humanity's Fire series.

The Warcage: two hundred worlds harnessed to an artificial sun in a feat of unprecedented stellar engineering. Built to travel through space as a monument to peace between alien species, now its voracious rulers have turned it a nightmarish wasteland, capturing new planets for slaves and resources, then discarding the old.

When a verdant agri-world is pulled out of its orbit, the captain of a smuggling ship must journey into the Warcage to rescue his crew.

Industry Reviews

Proper galaxy-spanning space opera

A convincing portrayal of political machinations and the plight of individuals caught up in events beyond their comprehension

A very entertaining read . . . the series as a whole possesses tremendous potential

The sort of thing that Space Opera readers love. We've got spaceships and a broad history, shown through the viewpoints of multi-person perspectives, linked together in a way that Heinlein would've been proud of
