Good read in the beginning but with a limp and predictable ending.
Captain Pausert and the little witches are back in action (and occasionally elsewhere in time) as their adventures continue in this follow-up to The Wizard of Karres. Alien plots and intrigue, bizarre plants, and cannibals - what more could anyone ask for!
I had to dig around a bit in my memory to have everyone and everything making sense - start the series at the beginning, or you'll be adrift in space!

Another sequel of the interesting book. Witch children and a good pilot flying the realms of space in search of adventure, and running from adventure when they find it.
