Farscape : Dark Side of the Sun
by Andrew Dymond

Description:
Lost and alone in an uncharted region of space, American astronaut John Crichton has found refuge of a sort about Moya, a living ship sheltering a fractious band of bizarre alien beings. But now Moya is dying of a pernicious infection, and the only cure in light-years belongs to the leader of a vicious band of space pirates. Crichton and his mismatched companions must strike a bargain with the dreaded Free-Trader, Jansz, or else perish with their vessel.

An already perilous situation escalates to open warfare when Rygel XVI, deposed ruler of a vast interstellar empire, discovers that his long-lost love is being held captive by the pirates. Will Rygel let his own pride and passion place Crichton, Aeryn, and the others in mortal jeopardy?

f course he will. . .
