Synopsis |
This is the story of two worlds, both -- in their different ways -- in chains. In Corporesano nothing stood still. In Regulo Five nothing moved. The first contact between these diametrical opposites was uncomfortably physical, leading from acrimonious litigation to the threat of interplanetary war. Common sense -- of a kind -- ultimately prevails however, and peace -- of a kind -- is restored to this tiny corner of the unknown universe.
And as for the Dorbott, he -- like all the wise -- allows neither time nor tide to interfere with his appreciation of a good tune.
