The swift will evade the sluggish. The astute will outwit the innocent. The mighty will seize from the weak.

Axia, a young woman who has spent her entire life on an asteroid, far from the prying eyes of spacers, finds herself yearning for the stars every time she glimpses a spacefaring spelljammer vessel. Her days may not be as thrilling as the swashbuckling tales she reads or as dramatic as the pasts she imagines for herself, but they are as safe as Shatterspace can offer. So, why does something inside her yearn for the stars with every passing moment?

When Axia survives a sudden assassination attempt, she finds herself cornered by Kori and Nia, a pair of pirates who present her with two choices: flee with them to Wildspace, where they can hide her among their crew, or face her demise. With death lurking at her doorstep, it seems like an easy choice. However, Axia soon realizes that her new companions have not been entirely honest about their motivations.

To survive, Axia must step into Blacktongue's bloodstained boots and embark on a more perilous and thrilling adventure than she ever dared to dream of.
