About the book

Bloodhype - more deadly than all of the other drugs in the universe combined, 100% addictive with death almost assured. The high it gives ensures the ignorant, stupid and daredevils in the universe will try it, and usually suffer the consequences for trying it. It's a big problem that cannot be ignored. As if that wasn't bad enough, we have a creature called a Vom who destroys entire civilizations and worlds who, with the help of certain intelligent lizards, has been woken up and set free from its self-made prison and is more than ready to once again wreck havoc on the universe. To combat it, we have two low grade Church officers, a ship's captain, a legendary alien guardian from an extinct race and a young, tall, redheaded male human who walks around with a deadly flying snake resting on his shoulder. Boring this adventure isn't.
