Sword of Diplomacy

It's now seven years since the Swarm broke through from their own reality and invaded the Sovereign Stars. At first, they were easy prey for the valiant captains and crews of the USF, but they learned, and they evolved. Now, seven years on, the governments of the Sovereign Stars are in chaos. King Orson Lorne has been murdered, his son deposed, and a puppet set upon the throne, and the dark and mysterious One King rules from afar. But the forces of good are gathering. One by one the One King's disciples are falling.

But there's another, much more deadly threat. A single Swarm leader, devoted to the service of The Will, has taken human form and is on the rampage. His goal? To destroy the human race by turning their computers and machines against them.
