  <default_description>&lt;b&gt;Hailed by Stephen Colbert as &quot;a science fiction book your grandmother will love&#8211;if she&#8217;s a lustful, violent lady,&quot; this mordant, fast-paced, witty tour of a delightfully improba&#173;ble science fiction world combines &lt;i&gt;The Hitchhiker&#8217;s Guide to the Galaxy&lt;/i&gt; with &lt;i&gt;The Magnificent Seven&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Our hero, Cole, is having a bad day. His sidekick has run off with his girlfriend. His ride has been disintegrated by an officious traffic robot. And the spaceship he&#8217;s stolen to escape from a tentacled alien bounty hunter turns out to be filled with freeze-dried orphans. Reluctantly compelled to deliver the de&#173;fenseless, fluid-less children to safety, Cole recruits a support team of humans, aliens, and one friendly&#8211;if cognitively challenged&#8211;computer. Their destination: the mysterious Yrnameer, thought to be the last untrammeled planet in the galaxy. Imagine their consternation, then, when they arrive to find it threatened by Cole&#8217;s archenemy, the most infamous outlaw in the cosmos. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Will Cole and his band of men and assorted oth&#173;ers be able to defeat the vicious Runk? Will Yrnameer remain unspoiled and unsponsored (and unpronounceable)? Will the orphans be rehydrated? Get all the answers right here, in a rollicking first out&#173;ing from a new comedic talent.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[The Sheriff of Yrnameer is likely the funniest book I have ever read.  The hero Cole is one of those 'whores with a heart of gold'.  Except he's not a whore.  He's a thief, smuggler, liar, cheat, and maybe just a little dim, but he makes up for it with a sharp wit and an extraordinary amount of luck...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66341927">more...</a>]]></body>
