The Fireborn Chronicles: Found in Bloomington, MN

PSIONIC SCI FI: the inevitable fusion of man...machine...and the paranormal. The Universal Government has found an enticing solution to bolster cooperation and membership. Each planet remains free to determine for themselves what constitutes an unacceptable faction. Then the Universal Government will remove them, and employ them on the Hive Planet. Workers of the Hive are addicted to a wonderful and all-encompassing drug that can only be earned by working, thus converting each planet's formerly unproductive and dangerous elements into a universal workforce that provides the ultimate interplanetary temp service across a truly universal web. Since its creation, only one person has ever escaped the Hive Planet: A newborn, fully implanted with compu-link interface temple plates, but not yet introduced to the drug meant to enslave him. He now leads a Dark Ops unit for The Gov. on a mission to uncover a psionic ring of criminals who have mind-jacked an important Government Ambassador. What they find will change the universe.
