Title: ISHIMARU
Description: Millions of miles from the nearest human outpost, the gold laden Deep Space Merchant Vessel Fortin has been high jacked of her cargo on her return flight back to Earth. After narrowly escaping to the surface of EROS 3117, Commercial Flight Engineer Michael Connors has found himself marooned and in dire need of medical attention in a place where human life cannot exist. With hours remaining on his dwindling oxygen supply, he must face his fears in the alien unknown for the fight of his life. Enter the Ishimaru, a fabled ghost ship of the past where one cannot distinguish from reality or an oxygen starved fantasy. It is here that one man will fight for survival all alone on a hostile planetoid far from home.
