Lieutenant William Jackson isn't like any other officer in the GCH. He lives a guarded life, unable to share the truth about who he really is, where he comes from, and what he can do. Ripped from Earth in the year 2023, he arrives in the distant future, brought there by an enigmatic alien race with their own hidden agenda. Soon he discovers the reason for his abduction - an incredibly rare genetic gift allowing him to activate alien technology left behind by a powerful Ancient race that once ruled the galaxy. Technology so advanced it has the potential to alter the balance of galactic power if it falls into the wrong hands and could mean the difference between keeping humanity safe or being hunted into extinction. Aided by his trusty AI, Bits, he's forced to adapt to his new life as he's conscripted into military service and struggles to survive in a galaxy teeming with danger and enemies' intent on the downfall of humanity. This is the story of William Jackson. Soldier. Covert operative. Man out of time. The savior of humanity... or the destroyer of worlds.
