This is the sixth book of The Langsyne Chronicles. These books are science fiction at its best, rivaling Star Trek and Star Wars in scope and action-- Here Cebalari senses a near danger but is unable to focus in on it, when she does remember it is almost too late. An Omega Warrior has returned to life and there's no way to defeat it. Vrok and D.M. appear then at the doorway, sorely wounded after their battle with Xemolys-- and Drac isn't with them, they are told that he is lost, that he will not return to the fortress. Achiba insists that he still lives and sets out secretly to find him no matter how dangerous the quest. And while the others mourn and Achiba seeks Drac, Kyle Radoffsky is busy doing his best to get into even more trouble on Malfeuro, a planet inhabited by clones and hybrids and alien life forms, some of which are after Kyle and the others with a vengeance. Victor Von Keres is there too, sitting in Joe's Bar with a huge Dragonsoar when Kyle and Xandu enter the place. Victori is looking for the Styx, a timeliner that had been Victor's ship before his crew had been changed into something other than human, but Kyle is the lucky- or very unlucky- one to find it.
