[A Fury of Aces 02] • Crystal Venom

What will you do when the hand that nourishes you starts choking you?

The crew of *Basalt*, the interstellar frigate, are major media heroes, famous beyond their wildest dreams. The various factions of the Administration, the Games Board, the Haulers and the corporate Gjomviks all want a piece of their action, and will go to any lengths to manipulate the famous ship and crew to make more money and gain more influence, even if it means savaging *Basalt* beyond recognition.

This is the second book in the Fury of Aces series and follows on from the action-packed BURNT ICE.
