THE TIMES
On the inhospitable world of Tran-ky-ky, a sub-zero wasteland where 50° below is a heatwave, a strange adventure awaits Ethan Frome Fortune and his companion Skua September. A flying ship has arrived bearing an extraordinary human cargo and urging the Tran inhabitants to attack Sagyanak the Death.
Only Ethan and Skua stand between the planet and doom. Playing the dangerous roles dished out by Fate's casting couch might just be fatal. Not to play them means death for sure.
MISSION TO M0UL0KIN – the sequel to ICERIGGER – is now available from New English Library |
