Pilot's Quest

When you have a really old starship . . . things can break down, at the worst possible time! With the old circus manager safely in jail, things should be going well at the circus where Anwyn Owens is assistant pilot. But when the ageing starship that serves as their home breaks down, all the ingenuity of Anwyn and head pilot Jemal can’t get things working again. The solution: head for the pirate planet of Open Port where Jemal knows of a salvage yard that just might have the necessary used part for sale. The solution just got a bit more challenging: Garcia, the owner of the salvage yard is missing, some threatening people are looking for him, and so are the team of special agents who seem to keep popping up in Anwyn’s life. Anwyn and Jemal are drawn into the search for Garcia. Along the way they will rescue a dangerous pet, meet a hot-headed teenager intent on vengeance, and a notorious pirate who becomes involved in the search. And don’t forget about those threatening agents of a rival government who are also hunting for Garcia! Anwyn and her friends might find Garcia, but will they get home with a replacement part or become victims of a brewing planetary revolution? LJ Dix
