Dark Running (Fourth Fleet Irregulars Book 4) - Plot & Excerpts
‘They told me it was the Marfikians,’ he said. ‘I don’t remember anything about it – last thing I remember, we were following the Samartians, then I wake up here and they tell me I’ve been out for days and I’ve got a new leg. It’s a lot to handle, skipper.’‘Yes, of course it is,’ Alex agreed. ‘But just take your time, Mr Triesse. We came under attack from three Marfikian Thorns, all right? We took three hits from them – one took out the section eight airlock, another stripped off the for’ard docking bay and the third blew up the air processing unit on the mess deck. You were badly injured – missing a leg, obviously, and with internal injuries – so you were kept in stasis for three days till they were ready to operate. Dr Penarth says that you’re fully restored and will make a full recovery.’Banno gave him a haunted look. ‘How many did we lose?’ he asked, and then corrected himself. ‘Who did we lose?’Alex glanced over at the screen which concealed the tank in which Ali Jezno was twitching as his brain buzzed with sensory input.‘You and Ali Jezno were the most serious casualties,’ he said.
