The sequel to Into the Looking Glass. William Weaver, PhD. and SEAL
Chief Miller are back and Bill got himself a ship! The former SSBN
Nebraska has been converted, using mostly garage mechanics and baling
wire, into a warp ship ready to go out there. But as everyone knows, the
people who really are going to bear the brunt are the poor Security
guys, Force Recon Marines who are kept in the dark and fed manure all
day. That is until they land on an alien planet, get partially wiped out
and then load back up again.
Ranging in topics from the best gun to kill armored space monsters to
particle physics to cosmology to health and beauty tips, Vorpal Blade
is a return to the good old days of SF when the science problems were
intractable and the beasts were ugly. The monkeys are out in the space
lanes and ready to rock. As soon as they get another roll of duct tape.
