As his warship comes under attack by a devastating alien horror, a drug-addicted recruit stumbles upon a secret super soldier compound. In his hand is the one hope to save the ship. But to do it, he’ll have to face his crippling fear of the alien Sasori that lies on the other side of the hatch.

It all began when as a new recruit, Jimi saw “the footage”.

Chaotic visuals of the horrific alien Sasori injected into Sol United fleet ships as killing machines in the war with the Andromedans. The creatures destroyed crew and ship alike and were impervious to conventional weaponry. Seeing the scorpion-like alien in action awakes a primal fear he can't control. Night terrors follow, disturbing squad mates already on edge from the stress of war. Jimi is an outcast in his own unit.

In desperation, he turns to the illegal drug hoosh and finds himself AWOL, hidden in the belly of the ship.

Crippled by his own terror and addiction, Jimi is unknowingly on the next ship targeted for insertion. His greatest fear of coming face-to-face with the alien horror is about to be realized.

A short story about a struggling addict with a deep fear of aliens who overcomes his fear with one last chance to redeem himself to his peers. Even though the audiobook was just over one hour the main character had significant character growth. I hope that the author plans to write a prequel on how Jimi became addicted and/or how humans came to be space explorers.

Excellent mix of styles. Not too scary but enough to make it fun. No spoilers but you will be a little bit surprised.
