The Undefeated

A no-holds-barred heroine is on the front lines of an intergalactic war in this space opera adventure novella by a New York Times–bestselling author.

She was a warrior of words.

As a journalist she exposed corruption across the Interstellar Commonwealth, shifting public opinion and destroying careers in the process.

Long-since retired, she travels back to the planet of her childhood, partly through a sense of nostalgia, partly to avoid running from humanity’s newest—and self-created—enemy, the jenjer.

Because the enemy is coming, and nothing can stand in its way.

“The Undefeated is a credible meditation on our place in the universe, delivered in masterly style.” —Aurealis

“Mesmerizing. . . . McCormack deftly tells a story of slavery and injustice precisely by not talking about it. . . . The subtle way in which McCormack tells this story shines a spotlight on the problem of privilege.” —New York Journal of Books
