Human!



A name that strikes terror in the hearts of the galaxy.



Well, maybe not terror. More like caution, actually.



Since you know how hot-headed Humans can be.



After the galaxy was attacked by invaders, the Milky Way was left but a shadow of its former self. In its wake, a savage, almost Wild West existence emerged, ruled by gun and muscle. And for anyone needing help in either the gun or muscle category—or both—everyone knows you . . . Hire a Human.



As the quasi-supermen of the galaxy, Humans have a reputation for being the baddest of the badasses. Now, only a few hardy Humans still wander the space lanes in search of work. If you can find a Human for Hire, you can't go wrong. The only thing: Be prepared for a lot of collateral damage.



Adam Cain wanted to stay anonymous, hiding from his famous name while eking out a living as a bounty hunter, enforcer, bodyguard or mercenary . . . anything that would pay credits for his particular set of skills. And when Adam accepts a contract to recover a fugitive on a stinking cesspool of a world, he finds more than he bargained for. But on his next 'simple' assignment, things go really bad and turns into DIE HARD in Space. Yippie-ki-ay . . . !
