The Lost Starship
“She could hear Captain Maddox working on his flitter.
Four busy days ago, they had escaped down the Class 3 tramline, fleeing the attacking destroyer. Since then, she’d pored over the scout’s manuals, soaking up information, checking everything she could think of about the Geronimo. By her review, the ship was in excellent condition.
