Paperback: 7" x 4½". Condition: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Jim Burns (illustrator). 1998 Edition. © 1998: 3rd in the 'Tabitha Jute' series of books. Unknown publication date. 2nd printing of 1998 edition:- Synopsis: Brother Melodious hung over Tabitha, smiling his starriest smile. 'You want anything, sweetheart, ask me'. 'I want my ship', said Tabitha Jute. 'Sweetheart,' said Brother Melodious. 'Be reasonable'. Some comas are hardly worth coming round from. Captive beneath the bloated twin suns of Capella, robbed of the gargantuan starship called Plenty, Captain Tabitha Jute wakes up to an unappealing future. And when the self-appointed post-human elite known as the Seraphim arrive, she's clearly surplus to requirements. There's only one thing to do. Put her best friend Alice in her pocket and hurl herself into the dying star system, to unearth the great Capellan secret. While Plenty contributes a secret or two of her own. Endlessly inventive, frightening and funny, the story of Captain Jute reaches its triumphant, unguessable conclusion:- Review(s): Praise for the Tabitha Jute trilogy: "One of the most compulsive space spectaculars in years" - The Times / "Cyberspace opera at its sparkling best" - New Scientist / "High-octane interstellar swashbuckling" - Time Out / "Colin Greenland has the kind of mind most writers would kill for" - Neil Gaiman:- (original cost £6.99).
