ARMADA OF DEATH
Perry Rhodan, leader of the New Power, had finally reached his goal – Wanderer, the Planet of Immortality – where the gift of eternal life was bestowed upon him. His mission complete, Rhodan and his mutant team turned the gigantic Stardust towards Earth once more.

But, unknown to the space explorers, five years have passed since their last contact with Earth! They return to find their home planet on the verge of a third world war. And that's not all – the Venus Base is surrounded by the unspeakable horrors of the Dark Planet!

As Perry Rhodan willingly enters the battle he becomes the target of an armada of five hundred armed spaceships streaking across the galaxy towards them . . .

Also in Orbit: Perry Rhodan Nos. 1-13
