    Synopsis
    This space opera is the 10th in a series chronicling the adventures of 24-year-old psychic Flinx and his flying reptilian pet Pip. Saving the galaxy is extremely tiring, and Flinx, according to his starship's artificial intelligence, needs to take some time off. However, the vacation spot he chooses is less than ideal: the isolated planet of Jast is the object of contention between two alien races, the AAnn (whom Flinx has faced many times before) and the Vssey.

    Sliding Scales

    Created: 12/02/09
    This is a book in the Pip & Flinx series by Alan Dean Foster. Usually his books are excellent but this one seems to be a little confusing and disjointed. There is not much about the two main characters in this book, or his amazing spacecraft; but a lot about a minor alien world and it's inhabitants. Not as much action as usual either. I bought it to complete our set of this series and am glad it was a VERY reasonable purchase, as I'm a little disappointed in it. I'd recommend this book only if you are a collector of this series and need this book to complete it.
