a bit of a change from the two heavy pieces I've just completed. "Angry Jasper," is a wry and risque Science Fiction piece inspired by the old paperback Westerns by authors like Luke Short, Court Martin and Zeke masters, with titles like "Naked Outpost, Badman's Bordello and Six-gun Outcast. The heroes were hard lovin', hard drinkin' men with a chip on their shoulder, fighting for a bit of justice in a cruel world, and taking love where they could get it-often from an old flame in some dusty frontier brothel.
Jasper is an interplanetary bounty hunter on the trail of the kidnapped kid of a wealthy family. He's in love with a space hooker named kate, who spies for the resistance. Kate and Jazz are great in bed, the best each has ever had, but can't stand one another otherwise. But their seperate trails are about to crash land them together on a barren and strip-mined Earth and a battle in which the fate of the planet and mankind hangs in the balance...
