Starhunt — David Gerrold

Their last hope was an obsolete starship and an obsessed first officer who might be insane.

THE LAST WARRIOR

The starship Roger Burlingame is a dinosaur. Outmoded and outclassed, it drifts through space on the brink of collapse. Yet as its demoralized crew hopes for reassignment, as its weary captain counts the days before his promotion to a desk job, a fanatical first officer named Korie refuses to give in to apathy. He believes he has seen the enemy--no more than a blip on a screen--and he's sure .e can defeat them. Korie knows he will need these men--even if they hate him--to hold the Burlingame together until the final confrontation. But as they drift ever deeper into space, following quarry that may be only a figment of their first officer's imagination, the crew of the Burlingame must decide whether Korie is a savior or a madman ...whether he is leading them to glory or certain annihilation.
