"BY TAO'S TONSILS -THE PIRATE ASKED. WHAT'S THIS?" They stood over an
unconscious creature sprawled on the floor. The captain replied, "That's a
HRal; they're only recently discovered.' "So what's it doing lying here in the
tunnel with its clothes ripped and no less than four itty-bitty breasts
exposed?" Before the captain could reply the pirate leader turned to one of
his men. "Get it- I mean, her," he ordered. "She'll come with us. This dull
merchanter doesn't appreciate exotic stash -but we'll make sure to provide a
nice exciting life for this kitty-cat woman!" SPACEWAYS #1 OF ALIEN

1982. Vast is a size, and size is a distance. Along the spaceways, time is a
measure of distance and events and lifetimes, and the spaceways are vast. The
crew of the spaceship Satana-Captain Hell-fire, First Mate Quindy, Janja,
Cinnabar, and Trafalgar-must have spent some two months-standard in the
marvelous self-sufficient city of Survival. As in the novel immediately
preceding this in the Spaceways saga, most of the events of this book take

because of the vast distances between stars. SCARLET HILLS Alas, fair ones,
