Star Runners Gus Cameron and his brother Nick make a dark discovery; one that would shake the very foundation of the Federation … the Empress of Krageon has been hidden away inside of a Hydro-Freeze Chamber in a dead starship on a desolate asteroid. Rescuing the sleeping Empress from the barren asteroid hurtles the brothers into immediate danger.The Empress is awakened from her five-year sleep. They discover why she was hidden out in deep space … the Kelgeons, longtime bitter enemies of Krageon, have replaced the Empress with an android duplicate, who has enabled the Kelgeons rule the Krageon Empire. All-out war is imminent, unless the Star Runners and the Empress can capture the evil Kelgeon Minister of Justice and his ruling renegades … to secure the Altair Rising.
