Stellar Legacy (Adventures of the Starship Satori Book 2)

A wild jump into uncharted space saves the starship Satori and her crew. But they quickly learn that they’ve only jumped from one danger into another far greater threat.
The planet they find is ruined, abandoned, devastated by some long ago war. Was it once the home of the civilization that built the wormhole drive? What happened to them?
As the crew begin their search for clues, they stumble across a war older than human civilization, and an enemy more terrifying than anything mankind has ever faced.

Excerpt:
“Oh,” Beth said in a distracted voice.

“Beth, what the heck is up with you?” Dan went beside her to see what she was looking at.
She was watching a radar screen, showing the airspace around them. It was pretty easy to read. Satori was dead center on the screen, and everything in the air nearby showed up with a number next to it showing relative altitude. When he'd last looked at the screen, there was nothing except the occasional satellite passing overhead. That had changed.

That had changed a lot.

Something very large was flying into radar range, about thirty miles above them and coming down fast. As he watched, the object broke apart, smaller bits flying off.

“Majel, what is it? Asteroid?” Dan asked. The larger object was still showing as about five hundred meters long and nearly half as wide. If it was a rock, it was going to make one hell of a crater, and they'd need to be long gone before it came down.

“Negative,” came the computer's answer. “Object is decelerating.”
