The constellation Envantinent, on one of the planets of which there is an abandoned imperial laboratory for the production of superweapons, is probably of interest to everyone except the cool guys in the recent past of space pirates Skyt Warner and Derek Ulitkins. They have given up and try not to participate in dubious activities. However, it is they who, together with the safecracker Pierre Hildreth, who is being chased by the intelligence services, the mafia and the police, and the mysterious young aristocrat with the unpronounceable name Lusperrandor Inexhoblust-Able, will go to this damned place. Literally to the stars “through thorns”: blaster flashes, ambushes, surveillance, assassinations and persecutions. After all, at a minimum, the results of the election of the mayor of Plobytown, the capital of the Union of Free Planets, and, at maximum, the future of the ruling dynasty of the space Empire depend on the result of this expedition.
