Final Clash
Terror has fallen like a dark shroud on the Cygnus Realm.
Darius Spann has returned, his mech, the Pulsar, dramatically empowered by the terrifying technology of the enigmatic alien Khitsos. Declaring the Cygnus Realm dissolved, the Cygnus Empire restored, and him as its Autarch and the Champion of all of humankind, Spann is determined to lead humanity to what he sees as its great destiny among the stars. He even envisions ruling the galaxy itself--but paranoia and unchecked ambition cause him to see enemies all around him. All too soon, Spann unleashes a campaign of tyrannical oppression to solidify his grip on humanity--and no one seems able to stop him.
Meanwhile, one of the few who could possibly challenge him, Lawson Sawyer aboard the mighty mech known as the Archetype, is trapped with Task Force Cygnus in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Thousands of light-years and centuries of flight-time away from the Milky Way, Lawson desperately tries to lead the Task Force home. But the Large Magellanic Cloud is home to mysteries, wonders and horrors of its own. Can Lawson and the Task Force overcome and survive them? Will they ever see their homes and loved ones again?
And even if they do, what then? Can Lawson and his friends and followers find a way to confront Darius Spann and defeat not only him, but the powerful Khitsos who are enabling his tyrannical reign?
Can they stop Darius Spann before he destroys humankind itself?
