Welcome to hell. Bring sunscreen.

Waking on a hostile desert world with no ship, no weapons, no way home and a disturbing lack of fnarrg, the squad discovers a landscape shaped by an ancient alien civilisation.

And something about the planet is very, very wrong.

Beneath the dunes are impossible relics.

The wildlife can reach into their minds.

Terraforming towers are driving everyone insane.

Even reality itself is beginning to unravel.

And with every sunset, the planet comes alive – and it wants them dead.

Now the Revenants must escape a world where they can’t trust their senses, their memories or even the shifting sands beneath their feet.

Read Dropzone #9 – the penultimate adventure in Esa Ortega's action-packed military sci-fi series.
