SPOILER
I read that last night and laughed out loud. The Chums are great comic
relief, especially Darby and Miles. I love that they have to respond to
the distress signal despite a conflict with their prime directives. A
classic Star Trek plot.
I feel a bit cheated though. What happened with the Legion of Gnomes,
and Chthonica, Princess of Plutonia?! I want my copy of _The Chums of
Chance in the Bowels of the Earth_!
