The Last Space Viking takes place a hundred years after Lucas Trask founded the League of Civilized Worlds.

Soon, the first real threat to Space Viking domination must be overcome and brought to heel.

Captain David Morland of Joyeuse emerges at a time when the Old Federation is changing for the worse.

Generations of Space Viking marauders have taken their toll and plunder-worthy planets have declined as more and more of the Old Federation worlds have slipped into barbarism.

But first, Morland has to find the right world and conquer it before he is discovered by a new power determined to end the Space Viking menace.
