**From the the award-winning author of the cult-80s classic
Liege-Killer and The Paratwa Saga, comes Starship Alchemon - a
deep-space action opera combined with a threat to all humanity.
**
Nine explorers aboard a powerful AI vessel, Alchemon, are sent to
investigate an "anomalous biosignature" on a distant planet. But they
soon realize their mission has gone to hell as deadly freakish incidents
threaten their lives. Are these events caused by the tormented psychic
mysteriously put aboard at the last minute? Has the crew been targeted
by a vengeful corporate psychopath? Are they part of some cruel
experiment by the ship's ruthless owners? Or do their troubles originate
with the strange alien lifeform retrieved from the planet? A creature
that might possess an intelligence beyond human understanding or may
perhaps be the spawn of some terrifying supernatural force... Either
way, as their desperation and panic sets in, one thing becomes clear:
they're fighting not only for their own survival, but for the fate of
all humanity.
