Synopsis

"The mission to destroy the enemy Gateway was literally a smashing success. Except the Pirates were too late, and now not one but two of the enemy are loose in the galaxy. And they are equipped with starships more powerful than Valkyrie. A direct flight would be hopeless, so the Pirates must rely on whacky ideas from the mushy brain of a monkey -- and some serious sketchiness."--Page 4 of cover.
