Allerdings interessieren sich mein Captain und die Crew weniger für die Pilze als für das Alien, das sie gezüchtet hat – eine ursprünglich als Superkrieger geplante Kreuzung aus den stärksten Spezies des Universums. So viel zu "verlassene Forschungsstation".

No one in their right mind would ever challenge the Legion. No one but the Space Punks. Nightingale is dying. The only way to save him is by replacing a highly complex piece of his cybernetic body. And the only ones who have this part is the Legion, famous for its secrecy. The elite cyborg organization would never hand out classified technology. But Hel doesnt accept no for an answer. The Space Punks set course to Mars, which is not only Legion headquarters but also the center of power for the entire Pentad. Meanwhile, David struggles with his new-found memories and the mission hes on.

For Lieutenant Alexis Carew, it should be the perfect assignment - a command of her own and a chance to return to her home star system. What she finds is a surly crew, the dregs of every frigate and ship of the line to pass through on the way to the war's front, a first officer who thinks the command should have been his, and colonial worlds where they believe a girl's place is somewhere very different than command of a Queen's starship.
