Enemies of the System

One million years of genetic engineering has created the race, Homo Uniformis. Their thoughts are controled by a centralised nervous system and they live in a society where there is no war, disease or emotion. However, the planet of Lysenka II is inhabited by the primitive descendants of the original space-ship colonists. When a group of the system's elite become stranded on Lysenka, they face a horrifying threat to their survival.
