Do Unto Others by Michael Williamson
The Prescot family were miners. At one time, they were contracted to developtechnology for a mineral-rich, but uninhabitable system. Gradually, all theinvestors shied away. Then the Prescots broke through with the technology neededto exploit entire planets, and incidentally develop domed playgrounds for theperversely rich, including indoor ski slopes and cable cars over megavolcanos,casinos, and rides. This created the economic problem of being the richestpeople in the universe, having more money than most governments and effectivelyunlimited resources. Money is a small blessing when enemies are quite willing to spend billionsfor the chance at trillions. Bryan Prescot and his daughter might as well havetargets painted on their backs for the thugs, kidnappers, and assassins theircompetitors would throw at them. Bodyguards were necessary — highlytrained bodyguards who could be bought once and be utterly loyal no matter thecircumstances. The altercation comes to a head inside the domes and mines ofGovannon, with their enemy desperate to do anything to save their own lives, nowthat the gloves are off. Caron Prescot has only six bodyguards against an army,but she has two aces in the hole: The miners are on her side, and Elke, RippleCreek’s psychotic demolition expert, has a nuke. The problem with Elkehaving a nuke is... that Elke will use it!| SKU | Unavailable |
