Lone Star Planet: Gunboat diplomacy meets the ultimate cosmic frontier.
About this audiobook
Welcome to Capella IV—better known to the galaxy as New Texas. Where the cattle weigh fifteen tons, the local politics are resolved with auto-rifles, and the high-profile position of Solar League Ambassador comes with a shockingly short life expectancy.
Stephen Silk, an eccentric diplomat with a penchant for highly controversial strategies, is about to face his toughest assignment yet. Sent to replace an ambassador who was brazenly gunned down in broad daylight, Silk must somehow convince a fiercely independent, trigger-happy planet of space-ranchers to join the centralized Solar League.
As if surviving the local "political justice" system wasn't difficult enough, an imminent invasion by the canine alien race known as the z'Srauff threatens to turn New Texas into an interstellar slaughterhouse. Armed with high-speed Krupp-Tatta automatics, a highly unpredictable bodyguard, and a crash course in planetary customs, Silk must navigate a deadly maze of conspiracies, courtroom shootouts, and rogue assassins.
Lone Star Planet is a thrilling, satirical space western that brilliantly merges high-stakes political intrigue with classic frontier action. Strap on your boots, keep a hand hovering near your holster, and dive into a world where true diplomacy requires the fastest draw in the stars!
