The thrilling conclusion to the epic saga that began with THE STARS NOW UNCLAIMED, the space opera SFX hails as a glorious romp!

Always outnumbered and outflanked, that's the motto of the Justified, the small band of mercenaries who are determined to set the universe to rights after accidentally unleashing a cataclysm upon it.

Find the fight before it finds you. But they're not the only ones who are trying to change the order of the universe. A group of psychotic beings, the Cyn, seem determined to stop the Justified.

Hit them before they hit you. This little band of heroes is going to have to travel to the farthest reaches of the universe in order to stop the Cyn and save the world. But there's a balance to the universe... and they're just about to upset it. Hard.

Praise for Drew Williams and the Universe After series:

"A proper space spectacular, the love child of Destiny and Star Wars, raised by Firefly on a steady diet of Resident Evil... The dialogue is snappy, and the jokes are laugh-out-loud: an escapist, gleeful, explodey space opera Tor.com.

"The only thing more fun than a bonkers space battle is a whole book packed with bonkers space battles. Come for the exploding spaceships, stay for the intriguing universe. Becky Chambers, author of The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet.

"An immersive, rollicking yarn. SFX. Pirates, smugglers, soldiers, spies, snarky spaceships, and really big guns. . . . and that's just the first chapter. The action gets bigger, the stakes get higher, and I loved it!" Claire North, author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August.
