Mickey made some bad bets on a friend’s game and now he is more than desperate to sign up as an Expendable on a colony ship. 200 people with specialized skills and then there is Mickey, his job is to do things that will get him killed but are necessary for the colony. When he dies he is resurrected and keeps doing jobs until he must do something lethal.  When the 6^th version of him is presumed dead his 7^th version is decanted. Six makes it back to camp and finds Seven in his bed and neither of them want to die even though only one of them should be alive.  With a colony leader having a religious hate about him he needs to keep out of trouble, but it doesn't happen.  The story was interesting and the ending fixes a lot of what is going on for Mickey.
