HUMANS BATTLE AN ALIEN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE EMPIRE IN SPACE FOR SUPREMACY!

When Captain Aurora Blackthorn of the United Earth Federation encounters an alien AI probe near the Neptune wormhole, she is still stinging from the loss of her last command and crew in a desperate fight. Now in command of a scout ship, the Athena, she finds out that some of her passengers may not be who they seem.

When she leads a team to a wrecked AI probe on an asteroid near the Neptune Wormhole, she makes a shocking discovery of intergalactic implications! Knowing the importance of returning their new prize to Earth, the Captain makes a drastic and dangerous move. She orders the navigator and pilot to skirt the wormhole, and attempt to use it’s gravitational field to slingshot them towards an outpost near Pluto.

But when the ship becomes ensnared in the energy maelstrom, the humans and alien AI find themselves facing a horrifying death, where they may be torn to shreds in the cold blackness of outer space. As the ship plummets towards certain destruction, the Captain faces a grim decision - enlist the aid of the AI and her suspicious passengers, or die along with her entire crew.

Can they survive?

Enjoy a rousing science fiction tale of military action and excitement in the vein of EE Doc Smith, Robert Heinlein and other classic scifi greats!
