About the Book
Knud Axel Syrup, chief engeneer of the spaceship Mercury Girl,
sat and drank his favourite beer and thought about the coming war he
was so anxious to avoid. For Grendel the planetoid on which he was
stranded had been occupied by a band of fiery Irish revolutionaries.
And once the rival Anglians discovered this, their response would be
speedy and violent.
Then, As Herr Syrup shook up a bottle of
brew and let the foam shoot out of it's top, he realized suddenly what
could be done to get him off Grendel.
And so came about a
marvellous spaceship, build of beer kegs, bound by gunk, upholstred
with pretzel boxes, and powered by the mighty reaction forces of malted
brew!
