When the crew of the Many Home discover a living human aboard a derelict warship lost in space for thirty years, they're certain they've found the galaxy's deadliest monster.

Humanity has long been extinct, remembered only through legends of its terrifying violence.

But David is nothing like they expected.

Alone, frightened and one of the last of his kind, he needs their help.

As ruthless warlord Aketan and a host of pirates race to capture humanity's last survivor as a living weapon, Captain Nakoi and her mismatched crew embark on a dangerous journey across the stars, discovering that family can be found in the most unexpected places.
