Picnic on Paradise

Picnic on Paradise

Alyx

Joanna Russ

The Future--and the planet Paradise is ruptured by war. Trans-Temporal Agent Alyx is specially transported from the past to guide eight VIPs to safety. Tough, resourceful and experienced in the hard hand-to-hand fighting of Earth's barbaric past, she is ideal for the assignment.

But the greatest hazards to the trip lie not within the mysterious forces that clash around them, but at the heart of the group itself...
