Foster is in top form here, entertainingly mixing politics, comedy, and intriguing alien anthropology."-BooklistAbducted by aliens to be sold as pets in a more civilized part of the galaxy, earthlings Marcus Walker and a scruffy dog named George (speech-enhanced to increase his market value) have managed to escape their captors. Walker loves being humankind's first galactic traveler-until he remembers he hasn't a clue where home is or how to get there. So the erstwhile commodities broker becomes a chef, whipping up delicacies for demanding alien palates. Of course he never imagined that the way back to Chicago would involve swapping his easy-living adopted planet for an all-out, age-old war many parsecs away. But hey, it's all for a good cause, he has George and their two fellow escapees for company, and what else is there to do, besides avoid nasty aliens? Plenty, as it turns out."An enjoyable read . . . Foster's writing is smooth and his characters engaging."-SFReader"Sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, and always entertaining."-Library Journal
