Maya and Neptune's Deadliest Ring — Erik Kreffel

From the imagination that brought you JAUNT -- now arrives Maya! The Solar System in the 22nd Century needs a savior whether it wants one or not. Be it tax dodgers or smugglers, Maya hunts down a spaceborne rogue's gallery as an agent for the InterPlanetary Tax Police. Neptune Regional Authority governor Van Noraesk has seized control of Neptune! Assigned to escort two young criminals-in-the-making to Titan, Maya is re-routed to arrest Noraesk, only to be captured and forced to fight in Neptune's Deadliest Ring, where the toughest of the tough combat each other in brutal contests. Parted from her semi-sentient sidearm Xibalba and her speedy craft, Skeeto, and forced to rely on her young charges and a mysterious female Army corporal, Maya must survive Neptune's Deadliest Ring and restore order to the Wild, Wild Outer Reaches.
