For a year, the winds of chaos have scoured the Inner Sphere, as terrorism and weapons of mass

destruction are used on a scale not seen since the First Succession War. Confusion reigns, and each

faction finds itself isolated amid its own turmoil. All seems lost. Yet as a new decade dawns,

glimpses of the greater whole begin to appear through the dark clouds. The true battle has only

Special Thanks

To the fans, for keeping the faith. To the critics, who

challenged us by saying this couldn’t be done. To Randall

bills, for entrusting me with so much of this story’s devel-

opment (it’s no mean feat, I can assure you!). To my fellow

writers for their contributions—even those that came in

well past deadlines—especially Øystien Tvedten for his tire-

less eforts to help me keep track of it all, and Warner Doles

for insisting on just a bit more detail. To the fact-checker

apparatus, especially the invaluable technical/mathemati-

cal expertise of Mike Miller, and the world data research

of Chris searls. and as always, a huge thanks to the “home

support” team: the lovely Rebecca “beckie” beas, and

the Herblet four (annie, oscar, Merlin and Meggie, who

listened to me vent about this or that—or simply walked

across my keyboard at an inopportune moment…). and

inally, a fond farewell to babette “betty” Grace Davis, who

was hopefully proud of her grandson (even if he chose sci-i

over historical romance…I’ll miss you, Grandma).
