The scanner had already passed 200 alien cadets without finding anything unusual.

Then it reached one final student.

The screen stopped.

One word appeared:

“DEATHWORLDER.”

In this thrilling HFY sci-fi story, hundreds of cadets pass through an advanced alien scanner designed to identify dangerous traits, unusual abilities, and potential threats. Everything seems routine—until the machine scans a quiet human cadet.

Instead of a normal classification, the system produces a designation the instructors have almost never seen.

Deathworlder.

The alien instructors quickly realize that the scanner isn't describing her rank, species, or training level. It is identifying where she came from—and what surviving that world has made her capable of.

As the academy begins investigating the mysterious human, the cadets discover why humans from Deathworlds are viewed very differently by civilizations that evolved on safer planets.
