In book seven of the series, our hero falls into an ice cavern where he finds the crew of a long lost space freighter trapped in the ice and the crew encased in suspended animation by a glowing sphere named Shirin who claims to have crash landed in the ice planet millions of years ago. The orb creates a body for itself by using a gravitational field to attract dense ice crystals and other stones to form a titan-esque serpent. As the hero learns of its intent to capture him as well, he must devise a plan to kill the being and escape so that the other members of his ship can find him and he can continue his mission
