...and it burns

Something is rotten in the planet of Severence...

Pariet is struggling to hold the universe together. He has a distrustful and disinterested boss, a committee that would rather argue than govern, and his own secret service is defying him. Not only that, but the Meeting of Minds has spent all their money refloating their headquarters and aren’t left with the means they need to enforce their power, and right at a time when it is most needed. A time when wars are fought over recycling habits, lies and trickery are being used to barter for brain enhancing gizmos, and a planet full of women seeks revenge for the destruction of the last tree. What this universe needs is a hero, and a hero needs an enemy. If Pariet can find all this, all his problems would be solved, but he’d much rather stay in bed.

Based on Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen, it’s a humorous storm through Severence and the surrounding planets that will introduce a whole new wacky world, but force you to reflect on your own.
