Shadows of Minos E R Donaldson

Something evil lurks on Minos Station.




With the Starfire Conduit in hand, the crew of the Vandal finds that their job is only half-done. The Conduit already has a buyer: the mysterious Cali Vay-Lon, leader of the criminal syndicate known as the Marauders. The crew is tasked with delivering their stolen tech to the Marauders' base of operations-a remote outpost at the far end of the Helion System called Minos Station.




But the Marauders aren't the only danger waiting for them at the farthest reaches of Terran space. Minos Station is the home of the Ren'Dahl Coven, the reclusive group of Sahaia to whom Eli owes his life and allegiance. What starts out as a requisite check-in with his estranged coven quickly becomes a reunion shrouded in secrecy and deadly purpose. Eli now finds himself in a position where he must choose between his obligations to his people and his commitment to his crew.




Meanwhile, the Ghenza continue to hunt for the Starfire Conduit and the runners who stole it out from underneath them. If the Vandal doesn't stay one step ahead of them, the crew will find themselves fighting for their lives at the edge of the assassins' blades.
