They're elves! They're fugitives! They're in space! Their names are Syldie Gatzer and Jako Langst, and they're two ordinary intergalactic couriers... until their tiny ship is captured by a roving gang of space pirates! Prospects seem grim as they're nearly forced into servitude under dwarvish space warlord Captain Nanobeard, but the intrepid duo hijacks a nearby wiener-shaped cargo shuttle and blasts off into the vast universe. Posing as hot-dog saleswomen for the universe's premier chain, NovaDog, Syldie and Jako must find a way to lose the vengeful pirates, get on the good side of the law, and complete what might be their most important freelance job ever.
Can a hopeless gamer and a high-strung mechanic really evade both a fleet of pirates and the universe's best vigilante detective agency? Time, as always, is of the essence.
