Their last flight?

Testing a new Jump drive far beyond the Frontier, Captain Kitra Yiilmaz and her friends plunge headlong into a rare first contact…

…just a little too late.

The world they find seems lifeless, shrouded in eternal silence—until it lashes out with lethal intent. Now, with danger all around, and emotions running high, can the Majera crew solve the riddle of the plagued planet in time to save a dying race?

With illustrations by Hugo Finalist Lorelei Esther.
