When a groggy Martian forgets the toilet seat after a wild wedding night, his new bride-the Queen of Venus-promptly declares war. So much for the honeymoon. Forgetting his pants, he flees his dripping bride in a dash for the safety of Mars, but the wacky space race is already off to a rocky start because even among artificial life forms, space ships included, naked Martians get very little respect. Richard Alan Dickson, author or "The Fifth Horseman" and "Mister Majestor's Magnificent Menagerie," creates a hilarious romp through the inner solar system in the style of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett. With imaginative twists and clever turns, "Love, Venusian Style" is a madcap adventure that's sure to keep readers laughing to the very end.
