[Note: TEXT REVISED as of Feb 4, 2025: Some significant changes, though the overall story is the same.] Humanity faces extinction. Ten-kiloton monsters are rising from the depths of the Pacific, levelling entire cities in frenzies of destruction. Earth's heroes have been decimated. The survivors put their hope in one last, desperate plan: find Hyperion, Earth's most powerful hero, and ask him to return from exile to save them.What they don't know is that Hyperion is dead.The Griffin spent ten years fighting wars across the sector as a weapon of mass destruction for the il'Drach Empire. His victories made his name a curse on a dozen worlds and a nightmare on scores more. He retired to the peaceful station Wistful and discovered that leaving his name behind didn't clear his sins, his debts, or his conscience.Earth's peril may give him a chance for redemption, if he can only find a way to stop the monsters without turning into one. Without becoming The Griffin again.
People are dying, their corpses left savaged and drained of blood. The obvious culprit: vampires. But vampires shouldn't be able to sneak around Wistful undetected or shadowstep freely inside her body. Soon the station herself becomes oddly uncooperative, leaving Rohan and Wei Li bewildered and all her inhabitants in danger.Finding and defeating the killer will require a deep dive into the ancient history of Wistful and of the il'Drach people. Into the connections between the Ursans, the wormholes, and the races that preceded them. Into the dark past of a tormented space station that yearns only for death.Rohan will be forced to fight, and maybe even to kill. He'll have to face those who bear grudges from his past, the Empire he once served, and his own reluctance to again become the warrior he sometimes needs to be.
