Publisher's Synopsis
In the Common Era year 2113, Major Maximillia Brandenburg activated humankind's first rendition of a differential gravity drive, momentarily exiting the multiverse and consequently cheating the physical barricade prohibiting faster-than-light travel. Humanity began to fill their empty galaxy, one habitable planet at a time. Ultimately, through the course of the next three hundred years, the bulk of human travel and interstellar commerce would transpire between these established flexure-points along a cosmic highway called "The Serpentine".
Insatiable as always, humankind's thirst for fuel only expanded with the advent of interstellar travel along this sprawling cosmic highway. To supply its gluttonous demands, the Company dispatched a ruthless agent to the galactic frontier to procure fuel without regard for method or cost. Trillions of desperate citizens have come to depend upon him for survival. Unfortunately for them all, he has become psychopathically insane. To restore order a small troupe of mercenaries must hunt him down amid the galaxy's darkest heart, and then destroy him.
