Product Description Hari Singh, the pilot of the Argonaut, a Daedalus class STL probe awakes to find the ship is lost in space. He and his crew abandon ship and land on an alien planet where they must fight for survival. They manage to attract the attention of an advanced starship and are rescued by the 'near-human' crew of the Uhorr. But their benefactors are not all they seem. In return for the salvage of the Argonaut, the captain of the Uhorr agrees to transport the characters to a civilised world. As Hari and the others strip the stricken Argonaut, the Uhorr's crew turn on them and murder eveyone but Hari and Tatiana, the ship's medic. In the fight, Hari and Tatiana manage to seize control of the Uhorr and kill the crew. Now they are lost in a strange universe, with a faster than light spaceship at their disposal....
