Books by Lawrence Lueder
In all the universe, only humankind stuggles to settle into distant planets on faraway galaxies. Sunaru is one such life supporting planet and this is one in a series of stories of such life struggles.
Lieutenant Marnush partially opened the side door and fired her weapon. Her shot were ineffective against the Horrex armor like scales. The Horrex made a lunge at the Lieutenant, just missing her as she stepped aside the open door. The Manators fired their rag-tag weapons, and one managed to clamber on to the moving truck. It made its way to the gunner operating the turret. The soldier turned around and was face to face with the alien. The Manators flared its frill doubling its face size with mouth agape. The gunner surprised by the beast’s sudden facial change, arched back while the Manator simultaneously stood over the soldier. In one swift concise move, the alien pulled out his wooden maquahuitl like war club, and swung it across the soldier’s headgear. The soldier collapsed on his side. A second downward swing from the club cracked the man’s head, spilling grey matter, decorated with skull hair fragments. The Manator jerked the gunner out of the turret and tossed him off the moving truck. The Lieutenant from the inside looked up to see the Manator looking down at her. She was ready and fired at the creature, punching burn holes clean through the aliens head. The beast released its grip of its war club and it dropped inside. “You – take over the turret”, Marnush command as she pointed to another trooper inside. “With pleasure.”
