    About this ebook

    A Gilligan’s Island in outer space, a Lost on another planet, an extravagant satire in the spirit of Voltaire’s Candide? ¬¬Perhaps elements of all contribute to Kenneth Tucker’s Farewell, MuirsheenDirken. In a society run by judges, in which all persons are judges but some judges are more equal than others, Winston Savage rebels by casting aside his number and choosing for himself a name. As a result he is banished to the mysterious Other Utopia on Saturn’s moon Titan Along with him are other misfits, including a jester, a mock Robin Hood, and two bosomy .sex queens, Miss Silly Tuesday and Miss Tasty Pudding. Midway in their flight, news arrives that war has broken out between Earth and the planet Kargan, Jr. And the exiles are redirected to search the asteroid belt for the mysterious Sampo—a device of staggering power reputed to be able to grant boons as well as destroy worlds. Along the way, Savage and his fellows must confront saber-toothed kangaroos, the god Hermes, the ghost of a mad scientist, alien flying saucers, and other marvels as they seek the object that may create humankind’s glory or its destruction.
