"The Wizard of Oz in space... Foster’s mastery of science fiction and fantasy writing turns this travelogue into... a great ride across the galaxies."
—SFReader

Marcus Walker, a former hotshot commodities broker, and a wisecracking dog named George, who has been speech-enhanced to increase his market value, have escaped their alien Vilenjji captors, who saw the two as cuddly extraterrestrial "pets" to be sold for a hefty sum. But Walker hasn’t a clue which way will lead him back home to Chicago. With the Vilenjji hot on his trail, Walker must pull off the impossible and pinpoint his needle of a solar system in the universal haystack. Will the unrelenting Vilenjji get to him before he reaches Wrigley Field? Yep, it’s a wide-open universe out there, bursting with possibilities—and Walker's going to get hit with all of them.

"One of Foster’s most entertaining series... [Readers] will revel in this book’s skillful blend of amusing cultural misunderstandings and edge-of-the-seat suspense."
—Booklist

"[A] slyly humorous saga."
—Publishers Weekly
