Jim Cartwright is commander of Cartwright’s Cavaliers, one of Earth’s storied Four Horsemen mercenary companies. He’s not your typical merc commander. He’s overweight and, at 20 years old, he’s the youngest person to ever take the reins. After a series of successful contracts, though, Jim’s brought the Cavaliers back from the brink of financial ruin.
Having discovered a functioning Raknar—a 20,000-year-old, 100-foot-tall war machine left from another era—Jim was able to use it to win a decisive battle. But now Jim wants more. Lots more.
Jim found a warehouse full of Raknar, but now he needs to learn more about how they were built, maintained, and operated. Searching for clues, Jim has found the location of the largest Raknar deployment in written history—the Valley of Loss. Will Jim and Splunk be able to find the info they need there, though, or will it become their own valley of loss?
