Space Marauders: The Obliteration of Zalamonton

Climb aboard The Tempest and join Captain Alexander Shakespeare and his raggedy band of pirate vagabonds-the Space Marauders-as they roam the Mars Configuration of the Melisandian Galaxy of King Arias and Queen Ampahra.

Good-hearted Captain Shakespeare and the Marauders are in the business of transporting themselves on enchanting adventures to wondrous planets. For sheer pleasure, they perform outrageous Shakespearian plays for unsuspecting planetary inhabitants and then raid their coffers for all things valuable: gold, jewels, art, literature, and music.

The promise of treasure takes them across the Melisandian Galaxy from Bootia to Zalamonton, where they fight their way through a cavernous Underworld, the dragons Gleetius and Firanta, the Underwater City, the powerful Magic Armory, an Interplanetary War, the Malicious 10, and Genetic Experimentation.

Amidst their revelry, they encounter a real mission, one that's critical to the Melisandian Galaxy's survival. They must rid the kingdom of Dr. Julio Bonafache, the evil ruler of the Liquitorian Galaxy. Bonafache is intent on obliterating King Arias' entire kingdom, including the planet Zalamonton.

This action-packed tale-complete with fantastic creatures and life-threatening adventures-is sure to capture the imagination of young adults and adults young at heart.
