Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In Emergence: Traitors, Gun Runners and Kin, humanity is beginning to find its place among the stars-and discovering that one of the things it does particularly well is build weapons.

Rance Kimman's work on a new generation of high-powered weaponry gives the crew of the Dojamarck an opportunity to turn an experimental gun into something much larger. What begins with engineering, testing, and a search for the right buyer soon develops into an ambitious new business for Eight Ball. Their plan extends beyond selling guns, combining weapons, ammunition technology, raw materials, transportation, and long-term contracts into an enterprise capable of reaching far beyond Earth.

For Maggie "Mother" Kimman and her extended family, it is another opportunity to make their own way in a galaxy where humanity is still a newcomer. But selling weapons introduces them to a different kind of commerce, one built on enormous sums of money, dangerous customers, questionable intermediaries, and relationships in which trust can be as valuable as the merchandise.

As the business grows, so do the stakes. The Kimmans have survived by relying on ingenuity, hard work, and one another. Now they are entering a world where fortunes can be made quickly, loyalties can be tested, and the difference between family, partner, customer, and enemy may not always be as clear as it seems.
