Century XXIV: in its third galactic war, the Human-Pepra Alliance is not doing precisely well against the aggressive Telayon insectoids, technologically and numerically superior. The ability of the enemy to turn members of the enemy races into fierce combat slaves, the Janissaries, seems another invincible advantage. But in the distant and inhospitable planet Hell’s Hive, has crashed one of the very advanced Telayon ships. And under the command of expert commander Yamashita, the “Huascar”, Centella class multifunction human corvette goes to study his remains. If the talented lieutenant Herrera manages, through reverse engineering, to unravel its secrets, the course of the fighting could finally favor the Alliance.
