The third book in the popular Czech sci-fi series Legie
Defeating the Commonwealth, freeing enslaved humanity, and reclaiming Earth – these are all worthy goals, but determination alone isn't enough, and the crew of the starship Kraksna lacks the means to achieve them. A job for the space mafia is therefore an offer they can't refuse. Fortunately, it doesn't seem complicated – get to the site of the final battle between two extinct species and retrieve something special.
A cosmic graveyard full of corpses and wrecked ships in a distant corner of the sector doesn't seem like anything Captain Bouchač, er, Moravec can't handle. At least, not until old enemies show up and, thanks to them, the crew of the Kraksna starts making new ones. The race against time begins, and the last free humans in the universe are not the only ones playing their part for survival.
Welcome to the Legie series – the world of František Kotleta and Kristýna Sněgoňová, a space opera as dark, action-packed, and entertaining as the cold expanse of space will allow.
