Humanity's fate is in their hands...
The Lucians have faltered in their fight against the cruel Ascendant overlord, Cef. Now, a handful of survivors from a failed liberation campaign have been called to a Final Challenge in a madman's arena.
For Rylan, Geeta, Scott and Aila, this may be their only opportunity to make peace with those they love. It will certainly be their last, best chance to save mankind from an endless cycle of genocidal slaughter.
Cef, of course, has saved his worst surprises for the war's finale. Among them is a specter of the hated Lilith who offers a deal that the Soondarian Empire's leader, Enri, can't refuse. Whatever else happens, she'll ensure everyone learns the price of spiting the devil. The only question is whether or not they'll have the courage to pay it and free humanity.
The third and final installment of the explosive Ascendant Wars Military Sci-Fi series from USA Today Bestseller Rhett C. Bruno and M.B. Vance. It's perfect for fans of The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, and Marko Kloos.
