… and they are us
Found adrift and lifeless; on a collision course with Earth, the Imperial Daignault class Destroyer Rose of the Dawn, a damaged relic from an ancient and faded empire, may be all that stands between humanity and the remorseless scourge of the insectoid Creednax. Voracious and relentlessly, the Creednax consume everything in their path, including people, planets and themselves if necessary. Only the Rose of the Dawn has the smallest chance of stopping them—if the abducted captain and shanghaied crew can figure out how to run the alien ship in time. Unfortunately, time is the one thing they don’t have.
