Deepsix (Academy - Book 2)"In the year 2204, tragedy and terror forced a scientific team to prematurely evacuate the rare, life-supporting planet of Maleiva III. Nineteen years later, it is hurtling through space and the opportunity to study it is about to be obliterated. With less than three weeks left before disaster, superluminal pilot Priscilla 'Hutch' Hutchins - the only even remotely qualified professional within light years of the ill-fated planet - must lead a small scientific team to the surface to glean whatever they can about its life forms ad lost civilizations before time runs out. But catastrophe awaits when they are stranded on the strange and complex world of puzzles and impossibilities. And now Hutch and her people must somehow survive a hostile world going rapidly mad, as the clock ticks toward apocalypse for a doomed enigma now called Deepsix."--Back cover. |
