Synopsis: Naked to the Stars: Cal Truant was a tough professional soldier, a Section Leader in the Human Expedition against the Lehuanen. A battlefield promotion had put him in charge of the whole 4th Assault Wing: now he was beginning to wonder whether he was ready for command. Especially against the raccoon-like Lehaunen, who didn't seem to understand such basic military concepts as "truce" or "enemy." So when Cal took a walk into Lehaunen territory, it was anybody's guess whether he'd come back at all--let alone with any memory of what happenned to him... The Alien Way: The Ruml's intentions were clear; they meant to conquer Earth as they had conquered so many other worlds. And so far, none had been able to stand before their onslaught. But Earth had an advantage that set it apart from all the other victims: Jason Barcher. Jason's mind knew, as no one else on Earth could know, how powerful and cruel the Ruml could be. But could he know Kator's plans--or find a way to stop the menace--without losing his identity as a human?
