From the creators of the highly acclaimed Shadowrunseries. Captain Paul Masters, a knight of the House of Marik, is sent to evaluate a counterinsurgency operation on a backwater planet and discovers a guerilla war—with both sides abandoning decency for expediency, ideals for body counts, and honor for victory. Cover art by Boris Vallejo.
