Thrilling Space Opera Aboard the Andromeda! When Captain Dylan Hunt's ship The Andromeda Ascendant of the Systems Commonwealth High Guard ventures near a world on the galactic rim to make friendly contact, it is attacked. Suffering severe damage, the crew must find a drift, an asteroid-based installation where they can resupply and repair the ship. Too far from a supply depot, they must depend upon a Waystation, a disused depot on a frozen world long abandoned by the Commonwealth. The Waystation might have parts the crew can use for repairs, but something lurks on the surface of this frozen world. Malevolent and dangerous, it has been waiting for centuries. In the long history of the old Systems Commonwealth there are secrets which have never been revealed. What terrible force has the Andromeda crew unleashed? "Fans of the syndicated show will enjoy this new escapade." —Booklist on The Broken Places
