About This Book

A Martian search party investigates a crashed spacecraft on a foreign, blue-vegetated world where native insect-men and winged predators menace survivors. Officer Rurak Dun locates the battered hull and meets Nitha Kel, the missing prince's daughter, whose presence ignites a violent rivalry with the renegade Jokar Ged. As they navigate jungle traps, alien fauna, and shifting alliances among Yzap allies and human castaways, the group struggles with loyalty, survival, and competing claims to leadership while racing against a looming political deadline that could determine who will rule their home world.
