The Infinity Hold poses, then answers the question of what type of society would arise from a mob of violent convicts dumped on a new planet with no police or government. This book will make you look at your opinions on the law and how it works. Bando Niccos becomes this worlds first police officer. I am reading this book for the third time and also the two sequels Longyear wrote and I just found out about. You can get all three, titled Infinity Hold3, on Amazon for $7.95.
