Omschrijving
THEIR ENEMY SEEMS UNBEATABLE
BUT HUMANITY IS INDOMITABLE
A Jain warship has risen from a prison five million years old, bearing lethal technology. Its goal is to catch its old enemy, the Client, and it will destroy all who stand in its path. Humanity and the prador thought their mutual nemesis long extinct. But the Jain are back and Orlandine must prepare humanity's defence. She needs the Client's knowledge to defeat them. But is the enemy of your enemy a friend?
Earth Central and the prador even form an alliance, and must learn to trust one another or face annihilation. But the Jain warship seems unstoppable. Orlandine's life's work has been to neutralize Jain technology - so if she can't end this, no one can. Or will she become what she's vowed to destroy?
