The Wolves of Alpha 9

A relic from a near-forgotten war, an escaped concubine, and planetary annexation. When Mack's hunt for a crashed war ship goes terribly wrong, Cutter and the crew find themselves embroiled in the politics of rebellion, inter-species warfare and inter-clan domination. Throw in clan rivalries and a cub in need of rescue, and a simple wreck retrieval becomes a matter of life, death and Odyssey. The only question is just how much trouble they can get into before they need help getting back out…and if someone will be there to aid them. NOTE: The main character swears like a sailor, and the support cast aren't much better. If swears bother you, then this story may not be to your taste.
