Ensign Andrew Dahl has just been assigned to the Universal
Union Capital Ship Intrepid, flagship of the Universal Union
since the year 2456. It’s a prestige posting, and Andrew is
thrilled all the more to be assigned to the ship’s
Xenobiology laboratory.
Life couldn’t be better…until Andrew begins to pick up on
the fact that (1) every Away Mission involves some kind of
lethal confrontation with alien forces, (2) the ship’s
captain, its chief science officer, and the handsome
Lieutenant Kerensky always survive these confrontations, and
(3) at least one low-ranked crew member is, sadly, always
killed.
Not surprisingly, a great deal of energy below decks is
expendedon avoiding, at all costs, being assigned to an Away
Mission. Then Andrew stumbles on information that completely
transforms his and his colleagues’ understanding of what the
starship Intrepid really is…and offers them a crazy,
high-risk chance to save their own lives.
