This gripping, action-packed novel reveals all the loyalties and treacheries, trust and betrayals, deadly violence and shining ideals, as well as the pivotal roles played by other well-known characters. Discover how meek disciple Orion Pax becomes the fearless leader Optimus Prime; follow the tantalizing clues about the lost Matrix of Leadership and the lore surrounding it; find out why the two allies fighting a corrupt regime suddenly turn on each other, and what triggers their epic war.

  • AMAZING BOOK!

    This is one of my absolute favorite books of all time. The author writes so masterfully that you are whisked away to Cybertron, and you can hear the sounds of battle raging around you, see the way the characters interact. Truly a work of art! It is also a fabulous source if you want to learn more about Transformers and the history between Optimus and Megatron!
