Months ago, David Ruger was an average human with a flighty boyfriend. Now he lives in an alien universe called the Expanse and wields supernatural powers. He's also traded in his flighty ex for Doug Colt, a man with a heart of gold and nerves of steel-which is a good thing, because his occupation can get rough. When David joins Doug and his brother, Bryan, on a job to track down a group of vengeful trolls, the journey takes them across the Expanse to the Shards of Exeter, a magical place made of continent-size landmasses shrouded in atmosphere. There, supernatural beings abound and formidable adversaries lurk in the shadows. But the mission is more than it seems. Through visions, David learns of the role he must play in reshaping the Expanse-and of the unspeakable evil that caused the God Hunters' war so long ago. With that same threat resurfacing, David must embrace his destiny to save the family he has come to love.
