Synopsis: (From the back cover of the DAW Books first edition:) Jack Storm, the only surviving Dominion Knight of the devastating human-Thrakian battles known as The Sand Wars, was a man on a mission, sworn to search out the unknown traitor who had abandoned him and his fellow warriors to death during the Thrakian invasion of Milos. Jack alone had escaped that doomed world, and he was determined to claim revenge for all those who had needlessly died there. But Jack soon discovered that he was hunted was well as hunter. For someone was out to silence him before he could expose the evil at the heart of the human Dominion Empire. And even the arid of his sentient battle armor and the beautiful thief and psychic named Amber might not give Jack the edge he needed. For how could he defeat the enemy ready to fire-burn a planet to destroy a single man - a seemingly all-powerful foe who could shanghai Jack out of the Emperor's palace to the prisonlike Lasertown mining moon, the place slated as the invasion point for the unstoppable, unbeatable Thraks!
