Commander Finn Radko and the crew of the HMCS Vimy Ridge, lone survivors of the greatest massacre in human history, begin a perilous journey through the mysterious attacking armada in the desperate hope of preventing another catastrophe.

Undermanned and unprepared for battle, Sergeant Freyja Sigurdsson and her garrison scramble to man their defenses as the unthinkable unfolds: an invasion. Marching through the blowing snow, an alien horde; their identity unknown, their capabilities devastating.

As the galaxy burns, Radko and Sigurdsson face the destruction of all they know and love, and must pull together a coalition of unlikely allies with the fate of humanity resting on their shoulders.

One ship against an armada.

Thirty soldiers against an army.

The future of the human race hangs in the balance.

Earth has fallen.

Mired in politics and frustrated by inaction, Commander Finn Radko and the crew of the HMCS Vimy Ridge begin a bold plan, unsanctioned by the Commonwealth they serve, to assemble a task force capable of striking a major blow against the ril-galas occupation force.

Meanwhile on Earth, the mysterious woman known only as Hunter sets in motion a plan of her own, to bring hope to the ever-dwindling number of survivors sheltering within the sturdy walls of Edinburgh Castle.

And lightyears away, in a star system steeped in myth and fear, an ancient prophecy is fulfilled — a prophecy that will forever change the course of history…

From out of the black,

a great Matriarch shall arise.

Following in the footsteps of Ur she shall come,

the blood of her enemies falling from her like rain.

Earth. The birthplace of human civilization. A civilization on the verge of collapse.

While survivors on the planet struggle to fight back against the occupation force, the upper echelons of Earth’s government – safely ensconced in the Thor’s Hammer space station – remain mired in political infighting that seems fated to lead to disaster.

Recovering from injury, Commander Finn Radko marshals his allies – including the newly-crowned War Matriarch of an alien race, Freyja Sigurdsson – to set in motion their ultimate end-game: the liberation of Earth.

But the enemy armada has begun a redeployment that, if successful, would completely cut off Radko and his friends from Earth.

The clock is ticking.

The war has come home.
