KRAALOK HAS BEEN DEFEATED, BUT THIS VICTORY IS ONLY A MIRAGE. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE KHOL COUNTERATTACK

Emily has been acclaimed as a heroine by the peoples of Kepler, but her greatest challenge is still to come. If they are to confront the threat hanging over them, she will have to persuade those who stayed on the sidelines.

The northern peoples have refused to take part in the war, considering that it did not affect them. But Emily suspects that the Herald they worship might be the key which will be able to tilt the scales in her favor.

Losses have been devastating, and morale among the survivors is stretched to its limit. But now that they have managed to destroy one of the enemy ships, a spark of hope has been lit. Their yearned-for freedom is closer than ever, if they can hold firm for the final battle.

WILL EMILY MANAGE TO GAIN THE SUPPORT SHE NEEDS TO WIN THE WAR? WILL THE KHOL PUT AN END TO THEIR HOPES OF FREEDOM? WILL THEY FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE ALIEN RACE WHICH RULED THE PLANET BEFORE THE KHOL?
