Nic has been Selected. Chosen to leave his own body behind and become a monster. Chosen to live or die on his own wits. His own strengths. He'll adventure out into a new realm as a foot soldier for the System's relentless integration of new worlds. Fighting to break the natives into submission. But Nic has never loved the System, or cared for his home planet, a depleted husk of a world that the System forgot long ago. With blue skies overhead and green forest to the horizons, he might just fall in love with this strange planet named Earth.

Using good humor throughout, Steven Joseph observes that we typically do not hesitate to pour out our CrankaTsuris all over our spouses, kids, parents, and sibling - and then there can be a CrankaTsuris retaliation. Before you know it, you are in the middle of a CrankaTsuris food fight.
