Sixty-thousand light-years from Earth, the corrupt Terran Confederacy
holds the Koprulu sector tightly in its tyrannical grip, controlling
every aspect of its citizens' lives. One man dares to stand up to this
faceless empire and vows to bring it to its knees: Arcturus Mengsk --
genius propagandist, tactician, and freedom fighter.
A monstrous act of bloody violence sows the seeds of rebellion in
Arcturus, but he is not the first Mengsk to rail against such
oppression. Before Arcturus grew to manhood, his father, Angus Mengsk,
also defied the Confederacy and sought to end its brutal reign.
The destiny of the Mengsk family has long been tied to that of the
Confederacy and the Koprulu sector, but as a new empire rises from the
ashes of the past and alien invaders threaten the very existence of
humanity, what will the future hold for the next generation...?
