Lost Planet First Colony Hardcover

"Dive into a terrifying adventure of Ice and Akrid, as a mission of interstellar salvage turns into a furious battle for survival! The planet of E.D.N. III seemed ripre for colonization - its icy climes ready to be warmed and terraformed. That was, until the first settlers discovered the indigenous Akrid - ravenous creatures, powered by their own thermal energy, who proved resistant to every weapon the colonists could muster. That first terraforming effort ended in tragedy, with the colony - and its rich haul of terraforming equipment - hastily abandoned."
