SHE WON'T GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT It's not every day you up sticks and move to another world. But then, Zoe Boutin-Perry's life has never been ordinary. She's the adopted teenage daughter of two former super-soldiers. She's also a holy icon to a race of alien warriors who track her every move. So she's used to the quirks of being a human in space. However, this time something's different. Betrayed by the authorities, Zoe, her parents and her fellow colonists find themselves stranded on a deadly pioneer planet. The Colonial Union has also set them up as a target for hostile alien action. Zoe must become a player (and a pawn) in an interstellar battle to determine the fate of humanity - or see it fall. Her father's story was told in The Last Colony, but Zoe's tale reveals a whole new dimension. It's a story you may know, but you don't really know it at all.
