Three friends embark on a thrilling quest aboard a planet-sized starship hurtling between galaxies and discover a dangerous mutiny that threatens its thousand-year mission. Thirteen-year-old Jed and his two friends, Kylla and Fallon, set out to find Jed's missing older brother and uncover the secrets behind his disappearance. Raised in a secluded valley where people have abandoned all technology beyond horse drawn wagons and simple tools, Jed and his friends venture out into the astonishing world of the massive starship, encountering strange cultures, technological wonders, and dangerous creatures. Aided by an ancient dagger with mysterious powers, and guided by an elderly priest, they must track down Jed's brother and save him from a mutinous faction known as the Iron Hand.
