Overview
Yesterday, the Star Kingdom of Manticore was a small, unimportant interstellar backwater with no navy, but today, ManticoreĀ has become a target. The Star Kingdom isnāt certain who is attacking itĀ or why, but Queen Elizabeth I knows she has to find out. She knows that whatever some of her subjects think, ManticoreĀ needs a navy. And it needs alliesāfriends like the dynamic Republic of Haven and the Andermani Empire. It needs their trade . . . and to learn from their more experienced and powerful navies.
Officer Travis Long and his wife, Lisa, mustĀ acquire that experience. And Travisās brother, the inexperienced diplomat Gavin, Earl Winterfall, mustĀ build those alliances. Theyāve been sent to theĀ Andermani Empire to do just that, for their navy is one of the most potent and experienced fleets in the galaxy. But the Andermani have problems of their own: their Emperor's death has triggered insurrection, and their navy is locked in civil war. The ManticoranĀ visitors are in the path of the storm, and before they can accomplish anything else, Travis, Lisa, and Gavin first have to survive.

About Timothy Zahn:
