Kaine's Reparation

He only wanted to save humanity...

They are coming and scattered humanity has no defence...

Human civilization is in chaos. With the collapse of the interstellar jump network, the empire has no defence against the approaching Malliac horde.

Hayden Kaine and the crew of the Scimitar discover an alien relic that offers one final hope.

Faced with a terrible dilemma, they risk everything in a last-ditch effort to prevent the extinction of the human race. But when everything goes horribly wrong, the existence of the universe itself may be the price to pay for meddling with technology beyond their understanding.
