The infected vampire planet of Genia is colonized by Earth by brutal means. The third generation of the occupation, the assimilated and humiliated, rise to reclaim their planet. EhriK, our warrior-scientist, is determined to extract a measure of revenge in the name of his family's honor and true love. He wants to validate himself as Genian and longs to be part of something so much greater than what he has been branded as. What he doesn't know is that a coven of witches has bigger plans for him and has identified him as their vaunted prophet to save Genia from Imperial Earth rule. Against this raging war, a very special book is entrusted to him, recognized by the Wickery to contain secrets that will lead to a great weapon to avenge Genia.
