The Paradise Game: Hooded Swan 4 (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In a galactic culture that extends from quasi-utopian worlds like New Alexandria to the vermin-infested slums of Old Earth, the Star-Pilots are the great heroes of the day, and Grainger has become a legend in his own time. Pharos is paradise - or so it appears. But the champions of commerce want to package and sell the planet, and the conservationists want to stop them. Grainger's employer, Titus Charlot, is enlisted to negotiate a settlement, but the game is rigged. Charlot needs the Star-Pilot's help, but there seems to be nothing he can do - until the planet's ecosystem takes a hand, and "paradise" suddenly turns deadly!
