The war may have ended, but that doesn’t lessen the need for special teams to do the necessary dirty work. Our varied collection of dangerous warriors, known as Drop Team Zero, answers the call. The current mission is to return the kidnapped son of an important Councilman, but as they enter the enemy’s mansion they find much more than they bargained for. They succeed of course using their variety of special abilities and make off with not only the mission’s goal, but the bad-ass leader as well. Back at headquarters they turn over their charges, resupply and nourish themselves preparing for the next mission. Zero is ordered to take the son home and then take the captive to a Black Site (sort of safe house) in one of the most dangerous sectors, known as the Klatu System. There they are to interrogate the captive and inspect the defenses of the Black Site. Of course leaving the home port with their precious cargo is the first problem. And from there the problems only mount exponentially. The only easy day was yesterday. Trivia; new world vocabulary faux = fuc*, crud = sh*t, chits = money…civilized progress? The characters are quite interesting although a little more background on each species and why they are in Zero would have been educational. Not a bad tale and lots of action, but the politics are somewhat confusing. Three.point.five for the effort.
