Daniel Hankerson was perfectly happy being just a mid-level spy, genetically-enhanced low-ranking member of the royal family and an avid poker player. Then the war started, someone tried to murder him, he met a strange war correspondent with an even stranger secret, and he found himself aboard a prototype warship going to the fringes of the Central Imperium. Then things got worse. An ancient enemy is approaching with a large fleet aided by people Daniel thought he could trust. Now Daniel must use his analytical skills to figure out a way to stop them before millions die.

Reviews

""Jan Kotouč's Central Imperium series is an example of why I wish European science fiction was more accessible to an American audience. This is grand-scale science fiction, with a storyteller's eye for both character and action, that doesn't back away from the essence of moral responsibility and the cost of duty. And how many protagonists finance the defense of human civilization in a poker game?""--David Weber, bestselling author of the Honor Harrington series
