Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda (Hardcover)

The crew of the Eureka Maru has fallen on hard times. Forced to bail out crack engineer Seamus Harper after a job gone wrong, Beka Valentine must use all her piloting skills to escape Takilov Drift and make her way to the seedy Olivares Trust. There, Valentine, Harper, the spiritual Magog Rev Bem, and demolition expert Fred Vexpag become involved in a plan to steal the famed Sword of Terpsichore, one of the most valuable relics of the Nietzschean Ursa Pride. But what seems to be a simple break-and-enter turns into a complex game of Nietzchean politics, as the Maru finds itself embroiled in an interpride conflict focused around the charismatic Charlemagne Bolivar - a conflict that will claim the life of at least one of Captain Valentine's crew!
Meanwhile, Tyr Anasazi - last survivor of the Kodiak Pride - has been hired to protect the world of Malani's Haven, which is in the throes of political upheaval. But Tyr has plans more far-reaching than the simple rule of a single world. He is determined to restore the glory of his Pride, no matter who or what stands in his way.
Soon, Tyr's obsessive quest for glory, Valentine's desperate need for cash, and the appearance of a mysterious alien named Trance Gemini will bring them all together for a daring salvage operation - and a legend will be born!
