Publisher's Summary

The elite crew of the pirate ship UNS Flying Dutchman had a simple mission: determining whether the Thuranin are sending another starship to Earth. Along the way, they became sidetracked by securing a future for the UNEF troops on the planet Paradise. When asked whether Earth was now safe, their ancient alien AI responded "Not so much"...now they have to deal with the consequences.

I can see this being made into tv show!

when CGI becomes easier and cheaper, there is no doubt that this will be a tv show.

Great book with excellent natation.

A very amusing series, good humour with serious politics and questionable but interesting science. R C Bray does an excellent job at natation as ussual.
