The 31st century. The era of the Great Expansion is long past; humanity is scattered across hundreds of star systems, and on the galactic frontier, in the Borderlands sector, only the law of the strongest prevails. Here, amid gravity wells and hypergates, former mechanic and fugitive Corvin North commands his frigate, the Alatris, braving the dangers of deep space. He once repaired rebel ships, for which he was sold into slavery in the mines of Providence. Now he is the captain of a pirate ship, outlawed by both the Northern Colonial Alliance and the Holy Dominion. A bounty has been placed on his head, and the Holy Dominion, thirsting for revenge, is hot on his trail. Ahead of him lie treacherous adventures, betrayals, and battles where the outcome will be decided not only by plasma cannons but also by a noble word.
