One man. A derelict fleet. An empire that wants him dead -- or worshipped.

Grant never asked to be a legend. He just wanted to graduate.

A disgraced baron from a fallen house, Grant spent three years as the academy joke -- the bookworm who couldn't pilot a shuttle without crashing it. Then his family inheritance came due: a bankrupt star system, a mountain of debt, and a mysterious "System" that granted him blueprints for starships that shouldn't exist.

Now he's building warships no one's ever seen. A carrier with T3-grade shields disguised as T2 scrap. Frigates that ram battlecruisers and win. Drones that tear through alien swarms like paper.

But in the Pandora Empire, power draws predators. Machine Race fleets on the frontier. Noble houses with ancient grudges. And the Martin family -- the most powerful dynasty in the northern sectors -- who've decided Grant is either their greatest asset... or their next casualty.

Every ship he builds makes him stronger. Every secret he keeps makes him a target.

From the academy duel pits where a single frigate humiliates a battlecruiser, to the front lines where thirty Machine Race warships learn what "inferior technology" can really do, Grant is rewriting the rules of interstellar warfare one impossible victory at a time.

But engineering genius won't save him from politics. And the greatest warship in the galaxy means nothing if the captain can't survive the war between the stars.
