monsters.

peace for centuries. But that peace is threatened by starfarring zealots bent
on spreading a harshly rigid ideology through force if necessary.

embattled planet, must tackle the mystery of human deaths that may or may not
have been the result of enemy action. All he has to do is survive the war zone
long enough to get the answer he needs.

languishes at the bottom of a hierarchy of advanced races. It falls on the
shoulders of one man to over turn the status quo…no matter what it takes to
achieve that end.

at the hands of bloodthirsty non-human savages.

the ruthless leader of a powerful criminal organization. But all is not as it

two agents serving a once great West African state are sent on a mission to

future.
