About this eBook

In 2154, on the habitable moon Ratava, once lived a race of happy-go-ignorant humanoids known as the Naviseal.

This was a problem for the humans who sought to exploit the invaluable mineral called Nogo. If they have to, they will huff, and they will puff, and they will blow the Naviseal's house down.

Aggressive security chief Colonel Thatsrich has recruited newbie Shake Sullen, a drafted paraplegic hoping to get his legs back, to spy on the locals. He never conceived (not in this movie anyway) that Shake would bond with the People, and find his legs in unexpected ways.

This parody is a headlong rush through a crazy world of oddball situations, say-what? events, inane misunderstandings, and blink and you'll miss 'em references to recent events, movie madness, musical meandering, and bad plotting.

Finally, you'll understand the Way of Whatever, and how colonialism gave rise to the popular catch-phrase of occupying armies everywhere: "Smoke 'em if you spot 'em."
