"Humans? We should have exterminated them all. Granted, they're tasty, occasionally even useful for dirty work, but they just can't be trusted."
- Aarashkvachora the Cruel, Grand Laywoman of the Creesh, 1st Speaker of the Council

2000 years have passed since our spiral arm's united spacefaring peoples defeated their ultimate nemesis in a heroic defensive struggle. An aggressive, ruthless species had spread further and further, destroying entire civilisations. Only a genocide born of desperation, the total annihilation of their home system and all significant colonies, could stop the hated aggressors.
Frank Gazer is one of their descendants - but he has no interest in weeping for humanity & Earth or mourning mankind's power loss. He is a prospector, body and soul. As the cold war between two competing star empires escalates alarmingly, he sets out for a seemingly lucrative comet. But the stray harbours a secret that could seal not only Frank's fate but also that of thousands of worlds ...

After the humorous Avatar series and the Goliath Chronicles' space thrillers, Stargazer: The Ultimate Artefact is a fast-paced space opera by bestselling author Ivan Ertlov.
Sense of wonder, galaxy-wide adventures and bizarre encounters. Not only for fans & connoisseurs of HEAVY METAL: F.A.K.K.², Titan A.E., LEXX: The Dark Zone, but an unforgettable reading pleasure for all friends of extraordinary science fiction.
