Scientists told Sebastian Collier that freezing a man for the trip to Triangulum was a simple procedure. Little more than a nap. But when the systems performing routine bodily maintenance go to great lengths to keep him alive, it's debatable what emerges from his cryogenic chamber could be called a man at all.

More DescriptionScientists told Sebastian Collier that freezing a man for the trip to Triangulum was a simple procedure. Little more than a nap. But when the systems performing routine bodily maintenance go to great lengths to keep him alive, it's debatable what emerges from his cryogenic chamber could be called a man at all. Years after Sebastian's mysterious death, his descendant Colonel J.D. Boskie is deployed to Triangulum to quash rebellion. Fervent political discord has the planet eerily united in its antagonism toward mother Earth. Slick thieves are heisting so much of Triangulum's resources that Earth's economy is in ruins from the fallout. The planet's as heartless as its automated factories. If they're building an army, well... Boskie's men think he's too young. His heavy-handed commanding officer Luna "The Lunatic" doesn't trust him. And Boskie needs the help of Lucia Meduse Rimbaud, the powerful Triangulese executive with dark eyes that the cherubim drew. She's argumentative. Forbidden fruit. Infuriating. Doesn't want anything to do with him. She's irresistible. Boskie believes something big's about to happen. He also believes he's slipping into madness just like his ancestor did. He may be right.
