<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The Divide: it's the edge of the universe. Now it's collapsing--and taking everyone and everything with it. The only ones who can stop it are the Sentinels--the recruits, exiles, and court-martialed dregs of the military. At the Divide, Adequin Rake commands the Argus. She has no resources, no comms--nothing except for the soldiers that no one wanted. Her ace in the hole could be Cavalon Mercer--genius, asshole, and exiled prince who nuked his grandfather's genetic facility for 'reasons.' She knows they're humanity's last chance"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>The Expanse</i> meets <i>Game of Thrones</i> in J. S.
