Here on lo - moon of Jupiter, hell in space - men mine ore to satisfy the needs of Earth. They are hard men, loners for whom the Company provides the necessities: beds, food, drink, and women for hire. Now, in apparent suicide or in frenzied madness, the men are dying...
To OUTLAND comes the new U.S. Marshal O'Niel, a man with a sense of duty so strong it drives him to ferret out evil, greed and murder regardless of the cost. If he must, he will forfeit love, livelihood-even life itself.
There are black and white photos from the movie starring Sean Connery, Peter Boyle, Frances Sternhagen and James Sikking.

A somewhat "hard SF" combination of "High Noon" and any number of recent movies of corporate greed and tough guys to assassinate the opponents. A novelization of the director's (Peter Hyams) screenplay of the 1981 movie. The novel follows the movie very closely except the novel is more descriptive in the details, especially in the science parts. Neither the movie nor the novel are poorly done; the movie is limited by the late 70s SFX; the novel by the re-hash of the well-known story line. Worth the read, however, once.
