When the everyday world is destroyed by intrigues of politicians blinded by power, and in the hearts of ordinary people treacherous fear and uncertainty grow, brave men and women from the people in every age rise up to challenge terror and violence.
Commander Dmitry Aleshin, together with his friends, as he enters an unequal confrontation against fanatics of an ancient cult who want to plunge the galaxy into chaos and destruction, inexorably moves closer to deciphering the mystery of the Dark Planet. Wanting to slow down the search and cover up the traces of the earlier crimes, radicals of the cult of the Nameless attack Alliance infrastructure facilities. The Earth government, concerned by the lack of reaction from the civilized community of galaxies, makes a fateful decision to repel the enemy on its own by sending on the mission the most lethal and perfect weapon ever created: the newest combat cruiser.
Providence itself leads the crew of the ship “Atlas-Victoria” through dangerous radioactive cities of the Vegans, through the secret research centers of the Bellatrians along the way to an even more ominous man-made world created by the legendary Transmire. A fragment of the once powerful League of Dark Worlds remains alive and full of shadows of a terrible past of a vanished civilization. Death and deprivation pursue everyone who, in pride, dared to set off on a sacred pilgrimage to the gates of Sferus in the hope of acquiring forbidden knowledge and carrying out an act of sacred revenge. Two former friends. Two now irreconcilable mortal enemies, each of them leading their followers to victory… or to inevitable death. Because at stake is not only their lives, but also the continued existence of all organic beings in the Milky Way galaxy.
