Leviathan Wakes,
The Martian, and
Ringworld comes a story of discovery unlike any other.
A distress call from an alien ship. Stranded on a hostile planet. Malick of Oberus is Captain of the science vessel
Pioneer on a mission to the farthest reaches of the solar system. When he and his crew answer a distress call, they discover an abandoned ship in orbit around the uncharted planet Sworld with a cargo of six aliens in stasis. When their orbit suddenly deteriorates, they manage to make it to landing shuttles only to end up marooned on this bizarre and beautiful world.
Malick and the crew begin a journey of discovery into a rich, vibrant, and dangerous world with new life forms and intelligent species. The right type of leader for the job, Malick is smart, fair, and competent. He has the best interest of the mission and crew at heart. Or does he? His background is shrouded in mystery, and his behavior has become erratic. Now, faced with being stranded on a hostile alien world, the crew have no choice but to put their faith in Malick to find a way home.
But a war is brewing on Sworld. An ancient race, once peaceful, has turned to violence and will stop at nothing until they subjugate their former allies. Plunged into a quest for a way off Sworld and an end to the bloodshed, the crew will find out more about Malick then they ever imagined.
