    About this ebook

    Banned to a remote outlying planet thought devoid of anything useful, Charles finds an agreeable paradise. He isn't exactly motivated to carry out his mission and when the Home World sends an unwanted colleague to check on him, it threatens everything--including the planet itself. He needs to warn the Queen.

    Tilly Jupiter

    Tilly Jupiter escaped to this time & space continuum a few years back (so she claims) with little more than a wicked sense of humor, a perceptive eye, a love for story, and little patience for fools. But that is quite a lot when you think about it. Ensconced in a remote bunker, she writes stories that strike fear into the hearts of the mediocre and chortles endlessly about the fact that some people think it is fiction.
