Motherbank, the disembodied, all-powerful leader of the inner worlds of the Arcturus system directs her best agent, Sebastian Starchild, to deal with acts of sabotage, piracy and terrorism before a full-scale war erupts between the system’s inner and outer worlds. Starchild sets off to battle space pirates, stop a legion of world-eating hunger bugs, and uncover an intergalactic mystery, aided (under protest) by sexy and deadly super spy Isis Nile and by his own trusty cybernetic sidekick, Orb.
