Summary:
It is November, the year 2254, and a nuclear holocaust has just been
released on the Earth. The phrase ‘mutually assured destruction’
becomes a grim reality and all life on the planet is extinguished.
However, there are survivors…There are colonies within the solar
system and in nearby star systems. In orbit on board the Colony
Vessel Nelson Mandela, Matt Logan and his hard bitten squad of Deep
Space Marine Corps veterans view the destruction of their home
planet. The colony ship is manned only by a crew of inexperienced
youngsters, the senior personnel spending a last night on Earth
before embarking on the longest journey so far undertaken by Man. The
vessel also contains a ‘cargo’ of 5,000 colonists, bound for the
distant planet Eden, where they were due to set up a third colony.
Hell Beyond Eden tells the story of Matt Logan and his struggle to
preserve this precious remnant of human life that he is sworn to
protect. As the home planet of humanity is destroyed beneath him, he
launches the Nelson on its voyage to Eden, only to find that there
are forms of hell other than that typified by the inferno below.
