  <default_description>From Lord Invay, Royal Historian, Chairman, Board of Censors, Royal Palace, Voltar Confederacy:  &lt;P&gt;&quot;Let me state it boldly and baldly: there is no such planet as 'Earth.'  &lt;P&gt;&quot;If it ever existed at all, it certainly does not exist today or even within living memory.  &lt;P&gt;&quot;So, away with this delusion.  &lt;P&gt;&quot;On the authority of every highly placed official in the land I can assure you utterly and finally, THERE IS NO PLANET EARTH! And that is final!&quot;  &lt;P&gt;With this emphatic disclaimer, we are introduced to MISSION EARTH, an epic told entirely and uniquely by the aliens that already walk among us. Earth is to be invaded and a Royal combat engineer must cross 22 light years to secretly infiltrate the planet. He is also crossing a scheme to use the resources of Earth's most powerful figure to overthrow the confederacy.  &lt;P&gt;With a convicted murderess who trains giant cat-like animals, a doctor who creates human biological freaks, a madman who controls Voltar's secret police, and clandestine Earth base in Turkey, a bizarre stage is set and narrated by an alien killer assigned to sabotage the mission and Earth - the planet that doesn't exist.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I admit, I was taken in by the hype. To my defense, the name 'L.

    <body><![CDATA[An ambitious work to tell a story over ten volumes. The first four do just that and then it tapers off and the writing becomes tired. I never made it past six even though I wanted to know how it turned out.

    <body><![CDATA[Read this after Battlefield Earth, in the hopes that it would be nearly as good.  The first book in a ten book series.  Its a Sci-Fi satire.
