From the back of the book: When Human beings finally sought out new destinations within the stars, discovering worlds and starting new colonies to make homes away from the planet Earth, they sadly brought with them the same ambition and greed which brings about crime and the exploitation of others. As colony ships reached out beyond Humanity's own solar system, they were set upon by space-faring pirate vessels belonging to criminal organisations and corporate entities alike who believed that taking things by force was the most efficient way of making a new start. To combat such threats, the IFA (Intergalactic Federal Authority) was created, dispatching frigates to patrol the known galaxy, each with its own individual fighter squadron assigned. These units were tasked with keeping the peace as Humanity learned to adapt to its new way of life, and as law enforcement gradually regained control of local sectors, other races of space-faring aliens came forth to dispute Earth's territorial quest. With unknown forces and new threats making themselves known, it was only a matter of time before peace gave in to violence, even in the far reaches of the galaxy... You are one of many lone salvage operators working throughout Earth's own Sol System. You live a quiet, solitary existence in the galaxy, though with an unsettling presence stirring at the edge of IFA-controlled space, your fate is about to bring about unexpected changes. Two dice, a pencil and an eraser, are all you need to experience this journey through the galaxy or you may choose to merely read this book as an interactive experience without dice. Like many of the decisions within, YOU decide which route to follow and what tactics to use in this Science Fiction gamebook!
