Author Description

After surviving the catastrophe on Odysseus, Paul and his unlikely crew-a beautiful synthetic counselor, the ship's AI, and a pair of soldierbots led by his faithful first sergeant-try to stay hidden in the void on the stolen Perseus while plotting their revenge. Unbeknownst to the fugitives, three relentless forces are converging on them: the Company, hell-bent on reclaiming their massive factory ship, ruthless pirates hunting the solar system's greatest score, and a desperate Fiona Malloy determined to bury the dark secrets Paul carries-secrets worth killing for. The heavily armed Company gunboat, ferocious pirate ship, and Perseus collide in the merciless void between Mars and the asteroid belt. In this explosive continuation of the Spirit of the Bayonet series, every crew member on each ship - human and machine - faces the same question... What are they willing to sacrifice?
