The Devil's Spawn
The Devil's Spawn is Captain Al Belcher's faithful account of the Zircon Army's campaign to win Uneeda and seize a three-ton hoard of gold.
The Uneeda battle was one of many in a bitter war for supremacy that had raged for a century between races. The hemocyanin creatures, Ichneumons, want to rule the planet, Erden. To accomplish their goal, the devils wagged genocide on humans and war on the Zircon Empire.
The empire has recently forced the Ichneumons from the strategic important Erie River valley, but the cat-eyed devils still control the inland sea and valuable western gold mines around Uneeda. The Zircon army orders Captain Belcher and his men to harass that Ichneumon garrison and stop their enslavement and murder of ranchers, farmers, and the Indigenous tribes. The twisted Ichneumon religion of blood sacrifices, and human greed for gold and slaves, exacerbates the brutality of the Uneeda campaign.
Covetous aristocrats, rare otters, murderous chiefs, and friendly females complicate Al's mission.
