Dr. Alyx Wick. College professor, archeologist, explorer...pirate. Alyx has seen her fair share of strange planets and is known for finding the unfindable. But she's come to loath this life and only wants to make enough money for an early retirement. A way to slip quietly away into the peaceful life. But when her friend and mentor disappears during a military funded exploration on a dark planet in another galaxy she's hired by Marine General Hunt to find him, a special artifact and the missing Marines. And yet, when Alyx and a squad of Marines sent as protection land on the planet they discover it's much more than they thought. A world full of darkness, narrow tunnels, and death. Now, trapped in a sacrificial temple, Alyx must find a way out before the awakened beasts devour them all. In similar tone as the Indiana Jones series, DEAD WORLD has arrived...
