L.E. Modesitt, Jr. returns to the world of Corus. This novel
concludes the trilogy of the intertwined stories of Dainyl, the
Alector, and Mykel, the native soldier.
The civilization of the Alectors, which has farmed and
developed all life on Corus to sustain their vampiric
civilization, must move wholesale from one planet to another every
few thousand years as it exhausts the life force of another world.
This time, two worlds have been prepared, and the time is at
hand for the great move. And Corus is the loser, to be abandoned
by the civilizing forces of the government of Alectors but used as
a dumping ground for malcontents and others who don't make the cut
to move on to a richer new world. This neither bodes well for the
future of human civilization, nor for the honest Alectors such as
Dainyl, who fights to hold everything together while all systems
fail. But the mysterious Ancients, the Soarers, are a force to be
reckoned with, and they may hold the powerful and destructive
trump card.
