In space, the line between patriot and pirate is as thin as a laser. And a lethal battle for power can be as near as your starship's next deck.

Loki - mercenary spy ship and bounty hunter. It's the legal arm of the Merchanters' Alliance; but once enlisted, no crew member leaves Loki alive.

Bet Yeager - a killer elite Earth Company Marine whose side lost. Now she's forced to escape aboard Loki, surrounded by enemies and hunting her old comrades. Yeager has nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. A single wrong word can give her away. And the fighting skills she must use to survive may be her death warrant.

The classic sci-fi series, brought to life with a full cast, sound effects, and cinematic music!

Edited but exciting.

I tried following along with the paperback but soon discovered there were many omissions on every page. The dramatic rendering was excellent, nonetheless. A very fine Cherryh novel and perfect intro for newcomers.

Pared down to plot

But gripping.
Cherryh’s world building is more complex in my experience. But it's a entertaining adaptation.

Good story well presented

The story is good and the presentation here is really excellent. Nice break from the usual history for me. Voices with conviction present a gripping tale.

C J is the best

C J is the best sci-fi world creator I’ve read in the last 50 years of reading thousands of books. Her characters come alive for you. This audio dramatization is great. Rimrunners, Hammer fall, Forge of heaven, Heavy Time, Hell Burner, TriPoint, Cyteen, Regenesis, Downbelow station, Chanur, 40,000 in Gehennnna, and all Foreigner books would be great audiobooks and movies. (Note some are audio books but I wish all were). Check them out and see. Huge thanks to C J for years of enjoyment!!
