Description

NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED . . .Captain Pausert thought his luck had finally turned-but he did not yet realize it was a turn for the worse. On second thought, make that a turn for the disastrous*.Unlucky in love, unsuccessful in business, he thought he had finally made good with his battered starship Venture, cruising around the fringes of the Empire and successfully selling off odd-ball cargoes which no one else had been able to sell. He was all set to return home, where his true love was faithfully waiting for him ... he hoped.But then he made the fatal mistake of freeing three slave children from their masters (who were suspiciously eager to part with them). They were just trying to be helpful, but those three adorable little girls quickly made Pausert the mortal enemy of his fiancee, his home planet, the Empire, warlike Sirians, psychopathic Uldanians, the dread pirate chieftain Laes Yango-and even the Worm World, the darkest threat to mankind in all of space.And all because those harmless-looking little girls were in fact three of the notorious and universally feared Witches of Karres. A rollicking novel from the master of space adventure.At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

    The author has written one of my favorite books. No, not "immortal" fiction, perhaps. Nothing more than a highly entertaining, extremely imaginative work that I enjoy so much that I am saddened when I reach the end and there is no more. Would that it lasted longer, or that there were a sequel. But it does not and there is not. So I revisit this book from time and even though I am thoroughly familiar with the outcome I very much enjoy the reread. I think you will as well.
