Whether he's suing the Pope, coming to the aid of voluptuous twin sisters in the virtual sex trade, or on trial for his life on charges of interplanetary genocide, you can be sure of one thing: this vertically challenged champion will meet every situation with a smile on his lips, an ace up his sleeve... and a blaster in his pocket Join the incorrigible Sam Gunn on a brand new set of adventures, as he seams his way from one end of the solar system to another -- and gives bold new meaning to the term venture capitalist.

Customer Reviews

Science fiction and comedy - a superb blend.

What a marvelous character Ben Bova has created. Just when you think Sam cannot possibly get out of a situation, be it political, sexual or space related, he pulls a fast one. This guy has more moves than John Travolta. A wonderful book that shows that science fiction can also have a light hearted side.
