THE FORTRESS IN ORION

Book ID/图书代码: 13005515B79470

English Summary/英文概要: The Democracy is at war with the alien Traanskei Coalition. War hero Colonel Nathan Pretorius has a record of success on dangerous behind-enemy-lines missions, missions that usually leave him in the hospital. Now he’s recruited for a near-impossible assignment that may well leave him dead.

At the cost of many lives, the Democracy has managed to clone and train General Michkag, one of the Traanskei’s master strategists. Colonel Pretorius and a hand-picked team must kidnap the real Michkag if they can, assassinate him if they can’t, but no matter which, put the clone in his place, where he will misdirect the enemy’s forces and funnel vital information to the Democracy.

Against the odds, Pretorius, along with Cyborg Felix Ortega, computer expert Toni Levi, convict and contortionist Sally "Snake" Kowalski, the near-human empath Marlowe, the alien Gzychurlyx, and Madam Methuselah - the Dead Enders - must infiltrate the Fortress in Orion, accomplish their mission, and escape with their lives.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 民主派正在和异族特兰斯凯联盟开战。战火英雄南森•普利特瑞斯有着潜入危险的敌军战线里成功完成任务的记录,这些任务经常让他负伤住院。现在他被任命去完成一个近乎不可能完成的任务,一个有可能会让他丧命的任务。

以许多人的生命为代价,民主派已经成功地克隆和培训了普通版麦凯,特兰斯凯的主战略家之一。普利特瑞斯上校和他亲手挑选的团队如果可能的话必须绑架真正的麦凯,如果他们不能,就杀了他。但无论是那种情况,都要让克隆麦凯取代真的麦凯,让他误导敌人的部队和向民主派透露重要信息。

为了对付怪物,普利特瑞斯和半机械人菲利克斯•奥特佳,电脑专家托尼•乐比,罪犯和杂技演员莎莉“蛇”科瓦尔斯基,近人神使马洛薇,外星人戈切丽斯和玛士撒拉女士一起—死亡终结者—必须渗入猎户座的堡垒,完成他们的任务,或者逃出来。(YYW)
