SCARAB-4

About the Book

The time: the year 4066. Out on the forty-seventh frontier the New Carthaginian Corsairs have plundered another imperial starliner; a not unusual Occurence. However, this particular liner had been carrying the Emperor's eight-year-old grandson, the Emperor-Select. When their lifeboat is forced to make a crash landing on a comparatively uncharted, hostile planet, the Select's nanny and her escort attempt to hide him; to keep him from the clutches of the brutal Corsairs until help can arrive. One man, Major Beauwulf-Ben-Gavilan of the elite Imperial Marshal brigade, is sent to rescue the Emperor-Select. What awaits Gavilan on SCARAB-4 is something that could not have been foreseen; something both wonderful and terrible; a thing that simultaneously binds together and puts asunder all of the religious and scientific philosophies of history...
