Description:

SUMMARY: For five years, the computer in Raj Whitehall's mind has been using him as its instrument to reunite the planet Bellevue as the first step in restoring technological civilization across the galaxy. Now, Raj's mission is to take on hordes of the Holy Federation and regain territories lost to the Civil Government for centuries. Civilization had been falling for a thousand years, since interstellar war isolated Bellevue from a universe in chaos. This was the last chance to reverse the fall. If Raj failed, the darkness could last fifteen thousand years.
