When Van gains rank as a Peacemaker, he becomes a bigger target for the criminals scattered among the stars.And he wouldn’t have it any other way.On a distant world under an alien sun, hunters and their companions—the Rovan—bond in a ritual as old as their civilization.

As Van soon discovers, the Fade never lose.But they’ve never met Van and his crew. Read more
