A GALAXY OF TYRANTS
Adjudicator Umberto Phillips is one third of Sector 7's ruling Triune, and part of the Interstellar Union's innermost power elite. Or so he thinks. Then, one night on frontier world Landfall II, government cyborgs murder a star pilot, a man who's just told Phillips an impossible secret: A rogue planet of freethinkers flourishes, hidden in the Beyond.
Suddenly, Phillips' safe "galaxy of law" is shattered, replaced by a real universe of conspiracy and deceit. Here psychotic officials assassinate rivals and paranoid bureaucrats commit planetary genocide. Here on a target range that spans the stars, Umberto Phillips will be trapped, poisoned by his peers, and hunted. And here, from deep space to guarded rejuv clinics, Adjudicator Phillips will discover that his only allies are the secret agents-- of a world that cannot exist.
