The long way home
Hammer's Slammer Don Slade is coming home to the planet Tethys, to his
son and the woman he loves. But the space between is dark and cold. And
the stars he must pass shine their light on planets which beckon to the
weary traveler, planets which hold hidden dangers. And if Don Slade
should ever reach Tethys... that is when the real fighting starts.
