A space-faring ne'er-do-well with more bravado than brains, Rex Nihilo
plies the known universe in a tireless quest for his own personal gain.
But when he fleeces a wealthy weapons dealer in a high-stakes poker
game, he ends up winning a worthless planet...and owing an outstanding
debt more vast than space itself!
The only way for Rex to escape a lifetime of torture on the prison world
Gulagatraz is to score a big payday by pulling off his biggest scam. But
getting mixed up in the struggle between the tyrannical Malarchian
Empire and the plucky rebels of the Revolting Front--and trying to
double-cross them both--may be his biggest mistake. Luckily for Rex, his
frustrated but faithful robot sidekick has the cyber-smarts to deal with
buxom bounty hunters, pudgy princesses, overbearing overlords, and
interstellar evangelists...while still keeping Rex's martini glass
filled.
