Glory Main would be an astonishingly short novel if the survivors never found water, so it shouldn’t be that great a surprise to learn that eventually they do (and here is where O’Neil begins to demonstrate his planetary romance chops).

Along the way, the four strangers become a tight knit squad. GLORY MAIN Author: Henry V. O’Neil Publisher: Harper Voyager Format: paperback Genre: Military SF. Back Cover Blurb.
