Description
"When the planet Miran observed an enormous vessel that was approaching their star system. they sent a spaceship to rendezvous with the mysterious visitor. The vessel's design was odd - a multitude of separate globular habitats in a long string - and most of the alien team that entered one of the habitats were slaughtered by savage creatures called "humans." One of the aliens had barely managed to escape to another habitat where the humans were more friendly, if rather technologically backward. But one of his crewmates was in danger and he needed to get back to his spaceship. He would need one human's help to do that.They would have to travel through several more habitats, each one isolated from the other, each with its own bizarre dangers and customs. And friendliness toward strangers was not one of those customs."--Jacket.
