In 2380, Academy of Aurora graduates receive their first assignments. Tyler Jones puts together a team of rejects after his attempt at heroism leads to unexpected consequences. In his unit there’s a bold diplomat, a scientist-sociopath, a technical genius, an alien warrior, and a crash-surviving pilot—an escapee from a wreck. However, their biggest problem is a girl whom Tyler saved from cryosleep and who may become the catalyst for the long-awaited war in the galaxy. Now the team of losers and discipline-breakers could become the last hope for the entire galaxy.
