Rise of the Defiant

Zona Nox has fallen...

And its people need a new home. But the nearest planet, Nova Zarxa, is no haven. Its shining towers only hide its fields of icy poison.

And as more and more refugees arrive, it becomes clear that they are not welcome on their new planet.

But James Terrin knows they have no choice. Because the true enemy is on the move. And they cannot lose their planet again.

Zona Nox fell. Nova Zarxa will be where they make their stand.

For the survival of their people...

Rise of the Defiant is the second book in the Warpmancer Saga, a gritty space opera for fans of Star Wars, Firefly and Warhammer 40k.
