The Nowhere Hunt was a quest ever Hunter refused. Only Aleytys, wearer-slave of the mysterious and powerful Diadem would dare to slip unseen past starship battalions and land on a world encased in a cosmic shield which rendered all electronic equipment functionless.
Avoiding poisonous flora, hostile natives, vicious predators and murderous ransomers, her jobs was to rescue and transport a massive semi-intelligent insect queen off planet and save the queen's besieged race from extinction.
