Minor Terran bureaucrat, Hobart Floyt, has been left a mysterious inheritance by the ruler of an empire located many light-years away. Earth's government is broke and its functionaries want Floyt to collect the money. To make sure he succeeds, they blackmail a brash young spacer named Alacrity Fitzhugh into shepherding him on a dangerous interstellar mission.

Twenty-four hours ago, Gil MacDonald and his men had been fighting off an ambush in a Viet Nam jungle. Now, thanks to some kind of magic spell, they were in the middle of this fantasy land filled with flying dragons, wizard, crazy castles and dispossessed princes.

Among the Ext draftees were Allgrave Burning, his techno-wizard cousin Lod, and beautiful, death-scarred Ghost. All three were destined to fight in a star-torn war like none other. For a mysterious, danger-shrouded planet beckoned them --- along with a disgraced starship captain and a powerful high priestess --- for the greatest battle of their lives.

Alacrity Fitzhugh and Hobart Floyt had claimed Hobart's inheritance from the ruler of a small interstellar empire, then returned to earth and toppled its government. But Alacrity had more important goals than body-guarding Hobart. He wanted command of the fabulous White Ship. Yet it took only a few minutes at the White Ship's helm for Alacrity to learn that a Captain's problems can be tougher than the work of a knockabout Spacer. And that solving them could cost a piece of his heart.

Arrival on the ominous planet of Aquamarine was a splashdown into danger for Dextra Haven and her ragtag force of scientists and Ext warriors. Yet Dextra was certain that Aquamarine held the key to peace between humans and a fierce alien race.

The key to victory lay deep within Aquamrine's terrifying sentient ocean, and Commissioner Dextra Haven was determined to reveal those secrets at all costs. But she and the Exts were running out of time.
