Hardback: 8¾" x 5½". Etat : Very Good: Light signs of wear. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Cover Art: Uncredited (illustrateur). 1st Edition. © 1992: 2nd in the 'Company Wars' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Training on the Hellburners wasn't easy. These new ships were powerful, fast, and unstable, so most of the training took place in simulators - but even then there were problems. And Dekker became a problem. He'd been found, nearly dead in a simulator: and they needed to know what had gone wrong. Because the Hellburners weren't just any ship, they were expensive - $4 billion worth of the latest interactive technology; 90% fuel, engines and weapons - and they were Earth's new, secret defense against the enemies that were building up, out there in deep space. Dekker had come in from the cold of deep space, so who better to talk him into some kind or reality again than his old comrade, Pollard. But Pollard was none to happy about this; he'd been doing fine in his quiet way and had almost managed to get himself transferred down to Earth for the first time. And when he found out what a mess Dekker was in - and that he had to sort it all out - Pollard was even less pleased. But that was just the start, because Earth's enemies were all around them - and no one wanted the Hellburner pilots dying in the simulators when they could be out there flying the ships for real. Its down to Pollard and his team to find out why the tests are killing the pilots - and how to get clear of their new-found enemies:- Review(s): ""'Hellburner' tastes of metal, flesh, speed, intolerable complexities matched by fast minds; it really is the taste of the future" - John Clute / "Cherryh's Merchanters universe is quite simply one of the best yet produced by SF" - Fear / "One of the finest writers SF has to offer" - SF Chronicle:- (original cost £14.99).
