Only on planet Bellevue was there a difference. There, a Fleet Battle Computer named Center had survived from the old civilization. When it found Raj Whitehall, the man who could execute its plan for reviving human civilization, he and Center started Bellevue back on the road leading to the stars. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Now Raj Whitehall has come close to reuniting the entire planet of Bellevue. Because of his victories and because of the way he won them, Raj is loved by the people--and his army would follow him to Hell. Even those closest to him, his band of sworn companions and his wickedly subtle but utterly loyal wife, hold him in awe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e And that's the problem. For though Raj battles only in the name of his emperor and has proven his loyalty again and again, still the half-mad jealousy and fear of that emperor Clerett is about to give Raj no choice but to revolt or face death and the loss of all he has gained for freedom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout prequel omnibus volume, \u003ci\u003eHope Reborn\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe various battles and intrigues-all of them very clever and some of them very unexpected-make up the core of these extremely well-written and unabashedly fun books.
