Centalpha 6 Part IX

by James Todd Cochrane, Janet Michelson (Editor), Kalen O'Donnell (Illustrator)

Breyden is in the race of his life. A deadly disease is spreading through the rebellion, infecting almost everyone, and time is running out to find the cure. The sheer number of sick has drastically reduced the available personnel to hunt for a viable solution.


With Breyden’s attention focused on helping those who are ill, the People’s Government puts its own plans into motion - to finish off the rebellion and bring order back to their totalitarian universe. When wars begin popping up all over the galaxy, the blame for the unrest and senseless violence is placed directly upon Breyden’s shoulders.


Breyden and his friends must engage in a deadly game in order to save their ailing colleagues and bring about real change to the destructive system under which they are forced to live.
