In the third book of the Daedalus Rimes Saga, it's been four years since the Korlah arrived. Earth is reeling from the infusion of alien technology as preparations are made to defend the planet from an impending invasion. The great leap into space has begun with wild abandon. After years of imprisonment, Teela escapes to find a world very different from the one she remembers. Faced with tragedy and loss, she must fight her way back into space and convince those she abandoned to help her. Forming new alliances, and rekindling old friendships, Teela joins forces with a group of privateers and embarks on a mission to rescue the one thing she holds most dear in the galaxy. Developing her telepathic powers and tapping the essence within, Teela battles pirates, political corruption and religious zealots with the help of her constant companion; Daedalus Rimes.

Two minds, one body, a single purpose. In this, the second book of the Daedalus Rimes saga, the white knuckle journey continues. Teela and Dade must fight to preserve the lives of those aboard the spacecraft carrier as well as those on the planet Earth. Together they face the greatest obstacle in their mission of mutual survival; mankind. Biblical prophecies of two species, light years removed, predict a war of good against evil. Sides are chosen, lines are drawn, the journey continues.

This is the story of Teela, an alien conscript who has had the memories of a dying human transferred into her mind. Her assignment is to communicate with this hostile species in the hopes of negotiating an alliance in a galactic war that will either save or destroy Earth. Teela soon discovers that she received more than just the human's memories. The success of her mission will ultimately depend on her ability to moderate the stubborn and unrelenting essence of Daedalus Rimes.

Bizarre earthquakes are rumbling over the long-dormant tectonic plates of the planet, disrupting its trillion-dollar mining operations and driving scientists past the edges of theory and reason. However, when rocks shake off their ancient dust and begin to roll—seemingly of their own volition—carving canals as they converge to form a towering structure amid the ruddy terrain, Lt. Jain and her JSC team realize that their routine geological survey of a Martian cave system is anything but. The only clues they have stem from the emissions of a mysterious blue radiation, and a 300-year-old journal that is writing itself. Lt. Thomas Weatherby of His Majesty’s Royal Navy is an honest 18th-century man of modest beginnings, doing his part for King and Country aboard the HMS Daedalus, a frigate sailing the high seas between continents . . . and the immense Void between the Known Worlds. Across the Solar System and among its colonies—rife with plunder and alien slave trade—through dire battles fraught with strange alchemy, nothing much can shake his resolve. But events are transpiring to change all that. With the aid of his fierce captain, a drug-addled alchemist, and a servant girl with a remarkable past, Weatherby must track a great and powerful mystic, who has embarked upon a sinister quest to upset the balance of the planets—the consequences of which may reach far beyond the Solar System, threatening the very fabric of space itself. Set sail among the stars with this uncanny tale, where adventure awaits, and dimensions collide!
