The Free Federation has fallen. Earth now rules a cruel, militaristic empire that benefits only crooked oligarchs and corrupt politicians. But on distant colony worlds, the fightback begins. Telepathic twins Ted and Rita, along with their strange pet Sneezy, join Agent Patel, Captain Hastings, and others to resist the new tyranny. Last Train to Clarkesville is an old-fashioned SF tale of action and adventure.
