Synopsis
The war is over, and the Lunar Free State has recovered and is moving forward with its colonial efforts on Xanadu. On Tatanna, the relationship between Luna and the ruling monarchy has never been stronger. For the Confederated Nations of Earth, however, defeat by the LFS fleet was only a temporary setback. Their fleet has been decimated and can no longer challenge the Moonies in space, but they still have plans for covert operations to harass, weaken, and eventually defeat LFS efforts among the stars. On Tatanna, they’re planting deep-cover agents to conduct espionage against both the Moonies and the Crown. On Xanadu, they’re sending teams to eradicate a group of their own people who escaped from the Confed penal colony and took refuge with the LFS. But the Lunar Free State is not without allies. On Tatanna, the Servants of the Goddess will come to their aid; on Xanadu, the Confed special ops teams will have to deal with the Kitties—highly intelligent and telepathic felines who are also the planet’s apex predators. The war may be over in the Sol System, but out among the stars, it’s starting back up again.
