A galactic transporter is carrying a group of creatures from different planets to a remote destination. Along the way the ship runs into energy trouble. To lower its mass some cargo and volunteers are left on an apparently habitable planet in the vicinity. Near the surface of the planet the landing craft is hit by a missile and destroyed. The only two survivors are a historian from earth and a female from some distant planet. By grave coincidence she looks surprisingly much like a human being. And a beautiful one at that. A creature of incredible intelligence and athleticism and irritation, she is everybody's enemy. After some adventures the two of them discover a community of people. People? Another coincidence? The people are often attacked by monstrous beings and the new arrivals try to help them survive. Will they succeed? Many mysteries clear up as the story unfolds. 100,343 words
