Drednanth

It began as a simple rescue operation. Then Thord, a seven-million-year-old immortal telepathic yeti, joined the crew. After that it was still a rescue operation, but it all started getting a bit weird. "Drednanth" is the story of the Astro Tramp 400 and her intrepid and slightly-battered crew, as they cross the galaxy in order to throw some of their passengers off the edge of it. In the process, they hope to discover more about the alien menace apparently bent on destroying their civilisation out from under them, survive the vengeful attentions of a school of highly-intelligent cybernetic sharks, and maybe even find out what the heck they're all doing in space in the first place. They have a lot to learn. But what else is new?
