Kidnapped in space...Silvariah and Walter's little girl is in danger and facing the tyrant, Penn, is the only recourse left. In a brazen act of desperation, they travel to the Moon, convinced it holds the secret to his nefarious empire.They know Penn is baiting them. They go anyway. When Scarlet disappears, they face off against their enemy with all their wits and strength, hoping it will be enough. Penn is confident he can't lose-but there are factors no one could have anticipated.Things like an independent little girl, a mercurial android... and the alien forces of the Denser Plane."Your scenes set in the Denser Realm broke new ground in a spectacular way. I've done my share of military SF, and these scenes stand with the best I've encountered. A rich and complex hierarchy, interesting characters with plausible motivations, and clear (if alien) action sequences."Stefan Rudnicki, the voice of Ender, Skyboat Media
