    About this ebook

    "I love this taste of Patin's vision, the science fiction shades of his Primoria universe. Fantastic atmosphere! Stands apart from the typical genre."
    - Terry Winthrop, Blogger and Administrator of SciFI World Weekly Reviews

    Stranded on an ugly, hostile planet, freelance Infiltrator Alex Varia must track down and face an entire colony of savage, backward Zurgans to reclaim his ship after a salvage operation was rudely interrupted.

    Enjoy this short novella from "The Chronicles of Alex Varia" series of Eddie Patin's Primoria universe.

    "Can't wait to see more of Varia! Awaiting Patin's full-length Varia novel."
