Across the ruins of the Scintillating Vast, kilometers-long biomechanical leviathans graze on solar winds—and Velskr is reckless enough to ride them. Armed with magnetic grav-spears and an indomitable grin, Velskr’s crew wrestles wandering star-beasts for sport and glory. But when Crown Prince Haelmund rigs an entire herd of cybernetic dread-mantas to trample civilian ring-worlds, the hunt turns into a desperate crusade. Dodging dreadnought fire, navigating kinetic storm fields, and leaping across the vacuum onto thrashing metal hides, Velskr must lead a wild charge through imperial battle lines. It takes madmen to steer a stampede through a fleet of warships, but when the alternative is planetary extinction, Velskr wouldn't have it any other way. Hold on tight: space is about to get wild.
