And so it is that star-pilot Wrik Trigardt and his female android partner Maauro, set off for uncharted stars while enemies known and unknown bar their path. Wrik and the ancient artificial intelligence 'Maauro' have formed the Lost Planet Agency are commissioned by Shasti Rainhell, greatest creation of the genetic engineers of Olympia, to find her grandson, missing with an expedition seeking the fabled Lost Colony of the first humans to leave the Sol System. But the Confederacy is wracked by enemies within and without and many would just as soon see the lost remain so. Wrik's spaceship, Stardust, lifts for uncharted stars and unknown perils.
