Descent Into Valles Marineris Shaun Pinkham

The Martian Mountaineers return to the Red Planet in search of wonders in this exciting new tale. Finding them triggers an international incident that verges on all out war. The digitized mind of an alien is their only friend and only hope as they find themselves embroiled in the first war in space. A handful of climbers and scientists must hold off an invading army with little to help them but their new alien ally and the advice of a long dead Chinese General. The barren surface of Mars becomes a battleground for a cadre of reluctant warriors determined to keep Earthshaking discoveries out of the wrong hands.
