Lewis Deathstalker has succeeded at the impossible: he's found Owen
Deathstalker, presumed dead for the last two hundred years. Owen's
return strikes a crippling blow to the Empire as his military joins
the rebellion. But Owen himself has a larger mission. He -- and
according to prophecy, he alone -- must travel back in time to stop
the steadily advancing Terror before the galaxy is destroyed,
leaving his descendant Lewis in command of the growing rebel army.
Even as Emperor Finn Durandal's empire is on the brink of
annihilation from the Terror, he will do anything, no matter how
evil, to retain power. Lewis is equally determined to take Finn
down and restore the rightful ruler to the throne... Note from

compelling murder mystery. Ishmael Jones is someone who can't
afford to be noticed, someone who lives under the radar, who drives
on the dark side of the road. He's employed to search out secrets,
