In 2066, Captain Karl Taylor was sent to investigate mysterious alien signals from Earth's moon, but the sights and sounds of the alien "city" he encountered were entirely incomprehensible to human perceptions.

Most were merely drone-like zombies known as Shiners, but two were different. One was Captain Taylor, who was sent back to Earth as a walking, indestructible, reanimated corpse — an emotionless killing machine. The other was Captain Grant Matthews, who was killed and duplicated while on a routine escort mission. His duplicate was caught and deprogrammed of his Myloki conditioning and, like Taylor, was literally indestructible. (PROSE: The Indestructible Man [+]Loading...["The Indestructible Man (novel)"])
