Meet Lieutenant Natalie Vonn. She's the chief security officer on the starship Initiative and a very good dog, but that doesn't stop things from going wrong. Join her on two exciting, danger-filled missions!

Die Menschheit hat sich über die gesamte Galaxis ausgebreitet, doch Frieden gibt es nur aufgrund des fragilen Gleichgewichts der miteinander konkurrierenden Fraktionen. Für dieses Gleichgewicht sorgen die ‚Anima‘, mächtige, als unbesiegbar geltende Kriegsschiffe, die von ihren Kommandanten Kraft ihrer Gedanken gesteuert werden. Eines Tages stößt der Pilot Matthew River während einer unfreiwilligen Expedition auf das einzige Anima, das jemals verloren gegangen ist: Es taucht wie aus dem Nichts in einer entlegenen Region des Alls auf – und birgt ein schreckliches Geheimnis.

Dylan Townsend, Isaac Barret, and Dr. Kate Minter get to travel on their first summons across space and time with Evaran and M.

The United Star Federation, or USF, is a human empire still healing from the aftermath of a visit by Antion, another cosmic being who killed the first Evaran’s gang. Antion murdered trillions of humans and shattered the USF into a loose coalition of eighty-one planetary system states. And they’re losing on all fronts.
