Black on Black

Heyoka Blackeagle is a seven-foot-tall hairy being with retractable claws. He is also the only member of the Hrinnti race to ever leave their home planet. Rescued from a slave market and raised by a human, he is now a soldier. He returns to his home planet seeking his roots, and he quickly gains enemies. As if that isn't enough, murderous aliens then invade. Things get very exciting.
