Información sobre este eBook
A cynical writer uncovers the horrifying truth about an intergalactic brothel in this space opera series finale by a five-time Hugo Award–winning author.
In its heyday, the Velvet Comet was a lively space station synonymous with hedonism. From across the Republic, the rich and famous came to rest, relax, and indulge in the greatest of pleasures. However, unforeseen circumstances forced the Comet to close, and she remained empty for twenty-three years . . . until now.
Novelist and award-winning librettist Nate Page has been hired to recreate the Comet’s story as a full-scale, hit, multimedia musical to be staged on board. For two weeks, Nate will have the place to himself to research and write the show. He even has access to Cupid, the Comet’s still-functioning, nearly self-aware onboard computer. It should be an easy job for Nate, but Cupid is determined that everyone knows the truth about the Comet—and it’s far from pretty . . .
The perfect choice for readers of Alan Dean Foster, Timothy Zahn, and Joe Haldeman.
Praise for the Tales of the Velvet Comet series
“A goodie. . . . Buy it, and join me in wondering what Mike will do with the next volumes in the series.” —Analog on Eros Ascending
“Well plotted, good characterizations, and an exotic setting. As good a mystery novel as it is science fiction.” —Science Fiction Chronicle on Eros at Zenith
