Something monstrous is happening on Hydra!Colonial Forces medical officer Captain Robert Fuseli (The Exploded Soul) is back, summoned to Pluto's tiny moon Hydra to investigate unexplained, horrific changes the colonists there have been undergoing, that alter them into vicious, inhuman creatures. Yet even though they've requested his assistance, the odd cult-like group - led by a charismatic and ambitious politician - seems to be hiding secrets from Fuseli. Especially, about a strange technology they've developed, that they claim allows them to interact with an enigmatic alien race - a race they have dubbed the Nought.Filled with action, mystery, and vivid characters, The Nought is another riveting blend of science fiction and horror from the mind of Jeffrey Thomas.
