In the 22nd century, the people of the Solar System have banded together against an alien invasion. Unfortunately, they're losing - badly. As the only Natural remaining in the genetically engineered officer corps of the United Planet's fleet, Henry Gallant has unique mental abilities that have proven essential to the defense against the Titan invaders. Nevertheless his fellow officers lack faith in him, and worse, he has angered prominent men by speaking truth to power.

Gallant leads the Warrior on raids against the Titans' commerce. He disrupts their military operations. Using a neural interface, he penetrates the Titans' communication network and steals a high-ranking alien’s identity. He learns about their society and fleet disposition. His hit and run tactics bewilder the enemy. Employing a brilliant strategy, he wreaks havoc with the Titans defense. Despite the demanding military actions, Gallant seeks to mend his relationship with his lover, Alaina.

As the last star fighter in squadron 111, Midshipman Henry Gallant is on his way from Jupiter to Mars. With the United Planets' fleet on the verge of annihilation, he can expect no help as he passes through the asteroid belt and threatening aliens. In an era of genetic engineering, he is the only Natural (non-genetically enhanced) officer left in the fleet. His classmates and superior officers have all expressed their concern that he will not be up to the demands of the space service.
