Synopsis
Buck is tricked into landing on the planet Zantia, where he is made a prisoner before being sold as a slave to Ariela, the daughter of the planet's Prime Minister. While living on the planet, Buck learns that all male members of Zantia's population have become prisoners of war while battling the planet Ruathan. Ariela talks Buck into helping free the prisoners, which involves secretly boarding the Ruathan ambassador's ship while it orbits Earth, a move that could place Earth at war with Ruathan.
