    The Orphaned Worlds: Book Two of Humanity's Fire

    Michael Cobley

    Formats & Editions

    Darien is no longer a lost outpost of humanity, but the prize in an intergalactic power struggle. Hegemony forces control the planet, while Earth merely observes, rendered impotent by galactic politics. Yet Earth s ambassador to Darien will become a player in a greater conflict as there is more at stake than a turf war on a newly discovered world.

    An ancient temple hides access to a hyperspace prison, housing the greatest threat sentient life has ever known. Millennia ago, malignant intelligences were caged there following an apocalyptic struggle, and their servants work on their release. Now a new war is coming.
