Rise of the Erlachi

Strange things are happening on the planet Prosperine.Commander Hickory Lace and her team have defeated the coalition of Bikashi invaders and Pharlaxian rebels that attacked Avanaux. As a result, the strategic agreement between Earth and the province remains intact.

Following the final battle, the Pharlaxian leader, Sequana, disappeared. But word has reached the Alliance that he is mobilizing the northern clans of Erlach in another attempt to bring Avanaux to its knees. Sequana has his hands on a symbiotic high-tech weapon that could threaten not only Earth's interests on Prosperine but the home planet itself.

Hickory and her team are ordered to find the weapon and bring it back. To succeed, they first need to avoid becoming dinner for a telepathic monster. Then they must cross the Erlachi mountains, overcoming many dangers, before reaching Sequana's stronghold.
