β¦ Synopsis
The interstellar array which links worlds together wakes to find it has enemies
The Fourth Carinad Empire stretches across hundreds of settled worlds and stellar cities, and thousands of light years. The Empires people and data are linked by a space-folding gates array controlled by the Emperor and his cohorts. When the array evolves into a sentient entity, it recognizes the Emperor as its foe.
Danny Andela, once known as The Imperial Hammer, withdrew from the Imperial Rangers decades ago, her reputation in tatters. She lives on her familys star barge, waiting to die of a rare disease: old age. She would be the arrays perfect weapon against the Emperor, except she no longer gives a damn--about anything.
Then Danny learns that the military disaster which essentially ended her life might possibly have been arranged by the Emperor himself

Praise for Camerons Space Opera:
This is epic science fiction at its finest. Realistic far future worlds. Incredible characters and scenarios.
Cameron knows how to tell a story, regardless of whether we are going back in history or forward in time.
Until this book I had forgotten just how much I love good science fiction and Camerons is not just good, its exceptional.
The concepts are staggering and intensely interesting.
