THE FINAL DESTRUCTION OF EARTH DID NOT END THE BATTLES OF MANKIND

But it did impose certain rules on the wars of Venus. Nuclear weapons were banned. The survivors of Earth lived in domed colonies beneath the sea, and their battles were fought on the ocean surface.

Every boy on Venus dreamed of joining a mercenary fleet — of a warrior's life on the high seas of the primitive planet — and Johnnie Gordon was no exception. Son of a senator and nephew to a great commander, Johnnie had trained his whole life for battle, but never dreamed he’d have the chance.

Now the time has come. Johnnie is about to experience his first taste of SURFACE ACTION.

It’s the toughest job known to man. And survival is just the beginning.
