Phule's Errand (Phule's Company Series #6)

by Robert Asprin, Peter J. Heck Narrated by Noah Michael Levine

Overview

What's a millionaire bachelor to do? Join the army-with his butler!



Captain Willard Phule is the only officer in the Space Legion with his own butler, but Beeker has stuck with him through thick and thin. Which is why Phule simply can't comprehend why his butler would run off-planet without a word-and take with him Omega Company's lovely new medic.



Without his right-hand man, Phule has no idea what his left hand is doing. So he takes off after his errant butler, just as General Blitzkrieg decides to make a surprise visit to Zenobia. And the only thing Blitz would like better than catching Phule off guard is to catch Phule AWOL . . .

Editorial Reviews

Phule feels lost without his right-hand man, so when his loyal butler, Beeker, disappears with Omega Company's comely new medic, our intrepid captain goes AWOL to bring him back. He sets out this nearly impossible mission just as the ever-devious General Blitzkrieg is plotting a surprise visit to Zenobia.

From the Publisher

Madcap . . . a welcome send-up of military SF.”—Publishers Weekly“Hilarious . . . I can’t think of any subgenre of SF that takes itself as seriously as military SF, so it gives me great pleasure to read this broad-handed lampoon.”—Science Fiction Chronicle

“Light without being frivolous, and displays Asprin’s considerable expertise about fencing and things military, especially leadership.”—Chicago Sun-Times

“Reminiscent of M*A*S*H.”—Analog

“A grand mix of common sense, outrageous and hilarious foolishness stirred with a dash of wisdom into a delectable mess to be served with tongue in cheek.”—Kliatt
