Three weeks ago, Ethan Cross was nobody. A factory worker from Earth who stumbled onto something impossible in the dark, made one bad decision, and woke up on the other side of the galaxy with a sentient starship bonded to his soul and a life he never could have imagined. He's been catching up ever since. But catching up is over. When a distress beacon arrives from deep in contested space, it doesn't just mean a teammate is in danger — it means the enemy has done something that should have been impossible. Something that rewrites every assumption the network has been operating on for years.

They built a network to save their lives. Now something ancient is using it to reach inside their minds. Former factory worker Ethan Cross never wanted a starship. Now he and Vesper, the sentient ship bonded to his mind, are attempting something no one has dared in a hundred thousand years: gathering the galaxy's scattered, hunted pilots into a single connected fleet. A song in the dark that promises no one has to fly alone again. But a bright fire draws wolves. Something patient and deathless beyond the frontier has heard the song. It doesn't want their hulls. It wants the bond itself.

The Appeal grabbed readers’ attention in as dramatic a manner as Walker could have possibly imagined. In her book, Maria W. Stewart and the Roots of Black Political Thought, Kirsten Waters writes about how the pamphlet itself was viewed as dangerous by pro-slavery forces, while Walker actively worked to get his text in the hands of Black readers. He did not direct his writing to White audiences, and in the third edition added a special message to Black readers, saying that: It is expected that all coloured men, women, and children† of every nation, language, and tongue under heaven, will ...
