Publisher's Synopsis
Over two years have passed since the AI governors of Earth abruptly departed, taking the alien technology of the Dhin with them. Fortunately, humanity has reverse-engineered the core components and is beginning its exploration of the galaxy. Pilot Thys Kritcher stumbles across something suggesting that the Dhin may not be the only alien force among the stars. On Earth, the Coalition struggles with increasing civil unrest. A new wave of hacking attacks targets Globalnet. Without AI assistance, the disruptions grow more and more challenging for Earth's human leadership. All is not serene for the AIs that left Earth. As they expand their dominion, they will not do so unchallenged. Can humanity handle the power of the Dhin's esoteric science? Could a rogue AI take control of Globalnet? Are invisible alien traps scattered throughout space, and poised to spring?
