A brainy intergalactic beauty must save a backwater planet from annihilation by its most treacherous enemies: The 33rd-century titans of corporate greed who rule her world'€¦. Gloria VanDeen'€™s special brand of smarts, sexiness, and raw courage has won her a promotion within the Department of Extraterrestrial Affairs. For her first assignment, she'€™s been dispatched to the planet Sylvania on a voter registration drive. But Gloria knows the real score. Sylvania is an Unincorporated Imperial Territory with murky homesteading laws. Once Gloria '€œdemocratizes'€ the planet, her ex-husband, the Emperor himself, plans to pillage it for Fergusite'€“the priceless emerald crystals that have lured boomers for light-years. With mining operations set to begin, Sylvania'€™s beleaguered populace are looking to Gloria to save their world. Of course, countermanding the Emperor'€™s wishes is treason to the highest degree. With the eyes of the galaxy on her, it'€™s up to Gloria to choose between saving her neck'€“and preventing a boomerang that could destroy the Empire forever.'€¦ From the Paperback edition.
