Thomas Chase wakes up from cryosleep to his first day at a new job-as a pilot for a contraband drug company dropping a shipment on Fantasia, a rock-planet terraformed to hide an elaborate drug manufacturing operation. Everything from synthetic heroin to MX7 is cooked here, in protected caves guard-dogged by the savage Aliens. When Chase's craft touches down on Fantasia, a chain of events begins that can not be stopped. As criminals and competitors try to take over the drug-empire from the dangerous kingpin, Chase and his brother Pete are caught in the crossfire…with the Aliens adding blood to the mix. • The worldwide Aliens audience, which has made the films top box office earners since 1979 and the books bestsellers in bookstores since 1992. • Fans of military science fiction novels such as David Drake's Grimmer than Hell and Hammer's Slammers series.
