Synopsis
The year is 1987, and NASA launches the last of America's deep space probes. In a freak mishap, Ranger 3 and its pilot, Captain William "Buck" Rogers, are blown out of their trajectory into an orbit which freezes his life support systems, and returns Buck Rogers to Earth, 500 years later.... The first original Buck Rogers in the 25th Century® adventure in over three decades! Set in the continuity of the original series, Draconian Fire Part 1: Lo, the Rings of Saturn is the first of three novellas that fill in the gap between the first and second seasons of the 1979 disco scifi TV show Buck Rogers in the 25th Century®. Join Buck, Wilma, Princess Ardala and Commander Kane as they face a threat that will either unite the known systems, or instigate all out war. On an undercover mission to save the Earth from an ecological disaster, Buck finds himself trapped on an icy prison moon packed full of his former foes. Soon, he and Colonel Wilma Deering must choose between preventing a madman from blowing them all up, or stopping a mechanical overlord from turning everyone into mindless zombies. Some centuries, it just doesn't pay to be unfrozen.
