Synopsis

"Come along with everybody's favorite con man as he encounters the Oriental Detective with too many sons, the Other Oriental Detective, and (shudder!) the Insidious Oriental Dentist. Join Lucifer as he hunts for the Yeti, wins the Great Wall in hand-to-hand combat, becomes the ruler of a land of eternal youth, and falls hopelessly in love with the notorious Scorpion Lady. Help him tame a block-long Chinese dragon named Cuddles, and ride with him atop a learning-disabled elephant called Akbar. Become his partner as he rigs rickshaw races and goes into the tiger-hunting business. Yes, Lucifer Jones is back -- and how! REVIEWS: "Perfect for those days when you're convinced nothing can make you smile, just to prove you're wrong." -- Science Fiction Chronicle 3/93 "Resnick has a reputation as a fine writer of comic sf, and the Lucifer Jones stories are perhaps the main reason."--Fosfax #162
