   Summary

   He built an empire on the bones of worlds. Now he wants theirs.

   The Commonwealth gave humanity the stars—alien allies, impossible technology, twenty-two years of unprecedented growth. But peace was always an illusion.
   The Ascendant, Emperor of the Thessian Empire, has discovered the Armory beneath Mars: a Prothean weapons cache that could reshape the galaxy's balance of power. For centuries he has hunted this prize. Now nothing will stop him from claiming it.

   Not the Commonwealth's fleets. Not their desperate alliances. Not the billions who will burn in his wake.
