The Forever Dead

By John Birmingham

A ragtag crew of heroes face off against an enemy intent on destroying humanity--and the galaxy--in this thrilling conclusion to The Cruel Stars Trilogy.

The Sturm, a group of "species purists" intent on destroying any human with genetic or cybernetic enhancements, returned from the far reaches of Dark Space to wage a war against humanity. Though their victory seemed inevitable, a small group of reluctant heroes managed to beat back the invading force and rebuild their once-peaceful empire. But the Sturm weren't fully defeated, and their remaining forces are intent on ripping apart the crew that thwarted their original plans--even if it leads to the destruction of the galaxy.
