Now in paperback, the sixth book in the thrilling Donovan sci-fi
series returns to a treacherous alien planet where corporate
threats and dangerous creatures imperil the lives of the colonists.
Three years after Ashanti spaced for Solar System, Turalon
reappears in the Donovanian sky. The Corporation has returned.
Donovan's wealth is a lure for the powerful families who control
the Board. Unburdened by morals, they are bringing their battle for
supremacy to Port Authority and a showdown that could tear The
Corporation apart. Much to her disgust, Falise Taglioni has been
chosen to ensure that her family emerges triumphant; she comes with
instructions for her brother, Dek. After all, she could always
manipulate him to her will. And she will again, even if she has to
destroy Talina Perez in the process. And if her war with the
Grunnels, Xian Chans, and Radceks destroys Port Authority in the
process? Who cares? But nothing on Donovan is static, and in the
three years since Ashanti's departure, life on the planet has
hardened Kalico Aguila and the scrappy inhabitants of Port
Authority. Life in the bush breeds a different kind of human:
genetically altered, tough, and self-reliant. And on Donovan,
determining who is predator and who is prey has never been easy.
Meanwhile, for Kylee Simonov and her bonded quetzal, Flute, there
will be a final comeuppance. Because on Donovan, blood vendetta
needs to be paid. And then she's going to town. After which,
nothing will be the same.

Now in mass market, the second book in a thrilling sci-fi action
adventure, set on a treacherous alien planet where corporate
threats and dangerous creatures imperil the lives of the planet's
colonists. New York Times bestselling author W. Michael Gear
returns us to the world he laid out with such sure purpose in
Outpost. The struggle for survival sharpens as resources dwindle,
technology fails, and the grim reality of life on Donovan unfolds.
Supervisor Kalico Aguila has bet everything on a fragile settlement
far south of Port Authority. There, she has carved a farm and mine
out of wilderness. But Donovan is closing in. When conditions
couldn't get worse, a murderous peril descends out of Donovan's
sky--one that will leave Kalico bleeding and shattered. Talina
Perez gambles her life and reputation in a bid to atone for
ruthlessly murdering a woman's husband years ago. Ironically,
saving Dya Simonov may save them all. Lieutenant Deb Spiro is
losing it, and by killing a little girl's pet alien, she may have
precipitated disaster for all. In the end, the only hope will lie
with a "lost" colony, and the alien-infested reflexes possessed by
Security Officer Talina Perez. On Donovan, only human beings are
more terrifying than the wildlife.
