Critic reviews
Peter Andrew Jones: "I felt I was 21 again, visualizing my first E E Doc Smith cover. Created with passion, for me, it conjured memories of unfettered creativity. If it was David's intention to write a 70s-style sci-fi book, he cracked it 100%."

Story
Five years after physicist Mark Holder discovered the Slipstream Drive in 2058, humanity reached for the stars and began to colonize the galaxy. For centuries, humans continued to populate system after system without encountering intelligent alien life. Some twelve hundred years later, after many generations of relative peace, in the year 3278, human space is invaded by a powerful and mysterious enemy. To these invaders the very concept of free will is heresy. Their crusade—to eradicate humanity. The war begins, and the fight for the survival of the human race is on.
