simple girl, or so she thinks. She helps her father, a tyrannically
demanding man, and yet very simple, or so Mina thinks. This is the
exciting story of Mina Magnus, the Guardian of Market Town, and
relentless gobbler of sweet apples and fresh buttermilk. Of course
Mina thinks she's just a salvage technician. Born in the Wasteland,
reared and weaned in the rough streets of the Market Town, and
worked like a slave on the Salt Flats, Mina Magnus is capable of
enduring anything, and she pretty much does. She fights killer
robots, power mad space aliens, and at the end of the day, must
always face the recriminations of a father who will settle for
nothing less than the most perfect and lady-like of manners and
behavior from his 'Virgo'.
In this second exciting misadventure of Georgia Challenger, our
mad, yet noble scientist, the intrepid Professor finds if she
doesn't take action she may find the devil at her door. She sets
out upon the only course possible: a road trip into section of the
Plateau she has left entirely unexplored and thus completely
unknown to her. Because of this she knows the entire family must
come along, not together of course, rather divided quite unevenly
into three parties without the benefit of really knowing what they
may find, or what may find them.
Georgia Challenger is always a busy girl, and her family is never
the ones to slow the pace down. This time big sister Cassandra is
on the doorstep, and demanding action. No one tells Cassy no,
because she's the Queen of the Castle, wherever she may roam. In
this Sixth Volume of the Georgia Challenger Series the hazard level
is high, and the dangers are many, because neither Georgia, nor her
sisters ever keep out of trouble for long. There is a mad prophet
to fight, a Liche-King looking for war, and more terrors to tame
when do goodies turned bad come to call when Georgia has just rang
the supper bell. Before it's over Georgia is knee deep in bad men,
and far behind the battle lines trying to bring everyone home safe.

tea. This is a Science Fiction/Fantasy novella intended for

she has, for her enemies will employ every trick in the book
against her. With the help of the fierce Lady Claudette Roxton,
Georgia's sister, she tracks down the every sinister villain she's
set herself upon, and no one will get away. Georgia even calls upon
help from her foster children when she must, even if it means the
have to fight it out knife to knife, and with tooth and claw in
jungle and rain forest, or warships so bizarre they ought not ever
have risen from the murky depths of the sea bottom's deepest
trench. Wherever Georgia must go chasing the last of these
miscreants, she is there: the Swiss Alps, a Miami Beach house, or
even the heart of a living volcano. Georgia tinkers to make new
toys, whether these are electric bullets or highflying spy planes.
Whatever Georgia needs to catch her quarry, our girl will make it.
She may chafes at accepting unsolicited help, yet our girl Georgia
