┬аThe Ship of the Law travels the infinite enormity of space, carrying eighty-two young people: fighters, strategists, scientistsтАФand children. After one alien culture destroyed their home, another offered the opportunity for revenge in the form of a starship built from fragments of the EarthтАЩs corpse, a ship they now use to scour the universe in search of their enemy.

Working with sophisticated nonhuman technologies that need new thinking to comprehend them, theyтАЩre cut off forever from the people they left behind. Denied information, they live within a complex system that is both obedient and beyond their control. TheyтАЩre frightened. And theyтАЩre waging war against entities whose technologies are unimaginably advanced and vast, and whose psychology is ultimately, unknowably alien.
