Classic Space Opera

Upon awaking from their multiyear cryostasis sleep, Rebecca, commander of the ESRS Carl Sagan, and her crew quickly discover that what exists in the Sirius system isn’t what scientists had predicted. Their journey to the brightest star in the skies of Earth has now become a dreadful catastrophe with the potential to reach Earth if left unchecked. With innocent colonists at risk and no means of communicating with Earth, Rebecca must abandon her primary mission of exploration in order to take on a new one - survival.

Within a year, Earth would be a vassal world, with the Sirian invaders triumphant. Only Standish, Earth's Defense Engineer, could halt that last victorious onslaught — and he was helpless, the lone survivor of a prison shipwrecked in uncharted space! 

Across Earth's radiant civilization lay the death-shot shadows of the hideous globe-headed dwarfs from Mars. One lone Earth-ship dared the treachery blockade, risking the planetoid's peril to find Earth's life element on mysterious Saturn of the 10 terrible rings.
