Chip Connolly was a conscripted grunt in trouble: stuck behind enemy lines with a bunch of cyber–uplifted rats and bats. Rats with human speech, but with rat priorities: sex, food and strong drink. And the bats were revolutionaries planning to throw off the human yoke — with high explosive. Then there was the girl they’d rescued. Rich. Beautiful. With a passionate crush on her “heroic rescuer. Her entourage was a screwball Alien tutor, and a cyber–uplifted lemurlike pet galago with delusions of being the world’s greatest lover.
Of course things only got worse. Seven rats, five bats, a galago, two humans, a sea–urchin–like alien and an elderly vineyard tractor without brakes … against several million inimical aliens. He was going to die.
Mind you, not dying could be even more terrible. That girl might get him.
