Sargasso of Lost Starships
Captain Basille Donovan used to rule the void. Now she rules bar stools. After her beloved Ansa fell to the Terran Empire, the once-proud raider surrendered to drink and obscurity, until the conquerors came calling. They need her expertise for a mission into the Black Nebula, that graveyard of lost starships where reality bends wrong. But the real problem isn't the alien horrors lurking in the nebula's depths. It's Valdum: her old lover, now a superpowered telekinetic commanding the Arzunian forces. As psi-wielding chaos bears down on humanity's edge colonies, Donovan must choose between the empire that destroyed her nation and the man who broke her heart. Anderson crafts a taut interstellar thriller where personal betrayal and cosmic warfare collide, exploring what loyalty means when every side has blood on its hands.
