Waifs & Strays Collection: The Complete Series

A Hurler On The Ditch: Shakbout Mansard, bottle-born agent for the Public Relations Security Agency on Theigler, is sent on a routine diplomatic mission that quickly becomes personal - and dangerous. If Shakbout fails, the borders between the Inhabited Systems and Deep Space could be damaged, putting the entire population of the Inhabited Systems at risk. As the investigation develops, Shakbout's past promises come back to haunt him.

Just Another Victim of Reality: Returning to the Rumple Zone while Asher talks to a potential customer, Shakbout finds out that others have plans for him and his family. After traveling to SunSide, an artificial planet just beside the border with Deep Space, Shakbout investigates a mysterious plant for an old acquaintance and makes a disturbing discovery. Working to protect Thimble and each other, Shakbout and Asher find that the only way is to go headlong into danger and hope to find a way through it.

The Scarlet Sunrise: After an act of bureaucratic revenge goes spectacularly wrong, Shakbout is sent to Turnstop to untangle the Penhallagin Estate. Before he can even get started, he's pushed into another mission: finding Xeno Kallefrees, a missing lifeform no one else seems eager to protect. A stolen ship, a romance scam and a false will soon pull Shakbout and Tobel into a conspiracy stretching from the Inhabited Systems to Deep Space.
