(Originally published as The Midas Rush)

All Tresky Buffrum wants is a taste of adventure and freedom before resigning himself to the simple life of a shepherd. What he gets instead is a mysterious wife, determined to remain chaste, who leads him to the Midas Crater where some of the planet’s intelligent natives have been transformed into gold.

Everyone on the caravan to the crater has an ulterior motive—except Tresky, who just wants to love his wife. Spies are everywhere. An Offworlder major goes mad and shoots people . . . at random, or so it seems. A grim policewoman becomes attracted to Tresky while she struggles to capture the mad sniper.

And watching every detail of this bizarre procession across the desert is an old, mute alien. Virtrillica seeks some rationale—or even an excuse—for her people to spare humanity from a war of extinction.

Can Tresky and his odd allies defeat the interplanetary conspirators who seek to destroy the Midas Crater and its sinister yet glorious secrets? And will he find happiness with his mysterious wife?

Seriously I cannot say enough about how good this book is. I enjoyed the characters, the intricate story line, and especially the ending - which was very satisfying. So glad I purchased it and definitely looking forward to reading more by the author.

Love science fiction and this is the best I've read so far. Our hero, Tresky Buffrun....love that name. He has the greatest lucky. He meets and marries a beautiful young woman after meeting her in one day. Our next interesting characters are the Sloths. They are highly intelligent and are the natives of this world. They can make things happen. Got to read it to find out.

A Sloth was found, dead and made of solid gold. Needless that caused a stir and an influx of people to the planet. I loved how the author created such an interesting world. I enjoy the mystery between Tresky and his young new wife. The sloth named Virtrillica decides to follows Tresky. And the really, really interesting thing about Virtrillica is she shares what she see with all the other Sloths. Cool!

This is a fun and exciting read. It was sleep stealer. I just couldn't put it down. Great ending. Differently would like a sequel to see what other exciting adventures Tresky can get into.
