      In this new series from a military science fiction master, a young hero emerges amid war and galactic conflict. Allen Allenson, heir to a once-noble family now in decline, seizes the opportunity to confront the power-hungry Terrans encroaching on a “wild” star sector. Eager to prove his worth, improve his family’s fortunes, and secure a good marriage, he embarks on a mission that quickly proves more challenging than anticipated. The cunning Terrans view him as a naive colonial, and the Riders—mysterious beings navigating the wilderness between stars—have their own deadly political agendas, manipulating young Allen for their purposes. Despite his inexperience, Allen surprises everyone by evolving into a hero.
