Martian Knightlife
by James P. Hogan

THE KNIGHT IS A SAINT
(with a twist!)

At least you might think so if you read his curriculum vitae. You would swear in fact that this private eye of the future is honest, paying for what he gets, getting what he's paid for, with somehow a little extra for everybody to go around. Take this case, involving a matter transmitter which the inventor tested on himself—then found his bank accounts empty and his credit cards overflowing, all done by someone whose DNA looks just like that of the rightful owner . . .

But that wasn't all. There was also an archaeological expedition which had uncovered ruins that might solve the mystery of the Martian race that had vanished from the planet eons ago—except that a greedy interplanetary corporation was all set to bulldoze them over in pursuit of the bottom line unless a gallant knight—or Knight—could come galloping up on his charger. Then there were some people who were not amused at how the Knight had foiled a sure-fire scheme worth billions, and were looking for him with heavy muscle and heavier artillery . . .

People in trouble and people who are trouble just seem to populate his life—and thank goodness, because they are the very thing the Knight needs to keep his life from getting boring. And the bad guys never seem to know what hits them . . .

 Praise for James P. Hogan:

1. Thomas on 5/19/2007, said:

This was a wildly fun and entertaining story. Life on Mars is a fun and fast paced existence, filled with freedom. the freedom to get in serious trouble, very easily. The humor was great, the technology believable, and the people as rounded and human as ever. A sequel would be more than welcome. Hogan writes a good story, and over the years he's become less of a militant atheist. While that has meant that his writing has broadened, it also has meant an ever expanding repertoire of stories, all of which are usually laced with a good deal of humor, and often times dogmatic characters. The result are people who a well rounded and act alike anybody else with a firm grounding in personal beliefs, whether those beliefs have any validity or not. A good book, from an author I respect.
