An old-fashioned adventure of the future... It's a not-so-brave new world. Corporations rule humanity. The world is a bleak and unkind place. But then the Mitoc, powerful aliens from the distant reaches of the universe, came and things got worse. Humans found themselves unable to resist the Mitoc's call. Like sheep, they climbed aboard the vast alien spaceships, to be shipped off to the stars to fight the alien race's war for them. To die for them.

Because millions of years ago, the Mitoc seeded Earth and a million other worlds. Programming the human species' genetic code so when the time came, humans would have no choice but to obey them. All so that when the time was right and the creatures the Mitoc engineered were advanced enough, they would come scoop them up by the millions to fight and die for them in their timeless battle with their own relentless enemy.

This is the story of one small group of genetic defectives who, although immune to the Mitoc's call, find themselves aboard a Mitoc ship. They are dropped on a planet in a far away galaxy to fight an enemy they never knew existed and a war they care nothing about.
