Wolf Worlds (Sten #2)

Set three thousand years in the future, the eight Sten novels tell the tale of a tough, street-wise orphan who escapes his fate as factory planet "e;delinq"e; to become the strong right-hand of the most powerful man in the Universe -- a man hailed by his billons of subjects as "e;The Eternal Emperor."e; When the Emperor needs to pacify the Wolf Worlds, the planets of an insignificant cluster that have raised space piracy to a low art, he turns to Mantis Team and its small band of militant problem-solvers. Sten's destiny is in his own hands.
