Synopsis

In this exciting sequel, Jason Hunter and his friends are abducted from school grounds in broad daylight and whisked away to a secret meeting on a frozen planet. There, they learn that another ancient talisman has been found. It's in a part of the galaxy that is off-limits -- and generally deadly -- to humans, but the inhabitants have demanded that humans come and remove it. Oruq, the Thothian leader and Jason's sworn enemy, is on his way to do exactly that. Once he possesses the device, he will plunge the galaxy into war. Because he wants revenge, Earth will be his first target. To stop this from happening, Jason must beat him to the talisman. But this time he can't claim it. Instead, he's going to do something much more dangerous. He's going to steal it.
