About the Book

Co-written by W. T. Quick.

One man holds the key to an Empire as vast as the stars

Jim Endicott is a man with a secret – hidden even from himself. Encoded in his DNA is a cybernetic weapon that can alter the balance of power in the Galaxy – for good or evil. But all Jim knows is that his dreams are shattered and he must take destiny into his own hands as a mercenary, a warrior for sale to the highest bidder.

The dreaded Hunzza fleet, the deadliest armada in the Universe, is armed to destroy Jim's home planet and the star that gives it life. Now, Jim must discover the truth about himself and decide which side he's really on, for the secret in his DNA is the only force that can save the galaxy before it's too late!

In this second Quest for Tomorrow novel, the famed Star Trek star and author continues a series that is crackling with high-tech action, rich with memorable characters, and bright with the glow of a legend in the making.

"Inventive, well plotted, interestingly peopled, deftly paced and controlled: a quantum leap ahead for Shatner." - Kirkus Reviews
