The Yellow Rover: Aviatrix (The Rover Series Universe, #4)

True evil comes not from the weakening of the body, but through the indifference of the soul. The crew of the Yellow Rover has definitely seen better days. Captain Sanhueza's decision to split the team has turned out to be quite frankly, an unmitigated disaster. This dangerous new world, coupled with its relentless inhabitants, have made their arrival a living nightmare for the Alpha and Bravo teams. Lieutenant Biancuzzo seizes command, enlisting his top technicians to help him devise an exfiltration plan. The two techs work non-stop, decrypting the data found on the mysterious moon base that was built by an ancient alien civilization known as the Conesans. With practically no time to execute this daring rescue, Biancuzzo and company spring into action-invading the planet. The surviving members of the Alpha and Bravo teams are eventually brought safely back on board for a debrief, but not before enduring another ferocious battle for their lives. The events of this failed colonization are not lost on the crew as it remains unclear as to what their next move should be. Press forward further into the star system or return home to the Rover Base Alpha [and admit defeat]. With a familiar face emerging from the shadows, no one on the Yellow Rover is safe. Burdened by a relentless desire to heed the cull, it is only in death that the living can truly be free.
