Now in paperback, the sixth book in the thrilling Donovan sci-fi
series returns to a treacherous alien planet where corporate threats and
dangerous creatures imperil the lives of the colonists.
Three years after Ashanti spaced for Solar System, Turalon reappears
in the Donovanian sky. The Corporation has returned. Donovan's wealth is
a lure for the powerful families who control the Board. Unburdened by
morals, they are bringing their battle for supremacy to Port Authority
and a showdown that could tear The Corporation apart.
Much to her disgust, Falise Taglioni has been chosen to ensure that her
family emerges triumphant; she comes with instructions for her brother,
Dek. After all, she could always manipulate him to her will. And she
will again, even if she has to destroy Talina Perez in the process. And
if her war with the Grunnels, Xian Chans, and Radceks destroys Port
Authority in the process? Who cares?
But nothing on Donovan is static, and in the three years since
Ashanti's departure, life on the planet has hardened Kalico Aguila and
the scrappy inhabitants of Port Authority. Life in the bush breeds a
different kind of human: genetically altered, tough, and self-reliant.
And on Donovan, determining who is predator and who is prey has never
been easy.
Meanwhile, for Kylee Simonov and her bonded quetzal, Flute, there will
be a final comeuppance. Because on Donovan, blood vendetta needs to be
paid. And then she's going to town. After which, nothing will be the
same.
