A classic novel from the master of science fiction, Frank Herbert's Whipping Star. "Herbert is one of the most thought-provoking writers of our time; by focusing on 'alien' culture, he makes us examine what the true definition of 'human' is." --The Pacific Sun
In the far future, humankind has made contact with numerous other species: Gowachin, Laclac, Wreaves, Pan Spechi, Taprisiots, and Caleban, and has helped to form the ConSentiency to govern among the species. After suffering under a tyrannous pure democracy, the sentients of the galaxy find the need for a Bureau of Sabotage (BuSab) to slow the wheels of government, thereby preventing it from legislating recklessly. BuSab is allowed to sabotage and harass the governmental, administrative, and economic powers in the ConSentiency. Private citizens must not be harassed, and vital functions of society are also exempt. Jorj X. McKie is a born troublemaker who has become one of BuSab's best agents. Drafted for the impossible task of establishing meaningful communication with an utterly alien entity who defies understanding, McKie finds himself racing against time to prevent a mad billionairess from wiping out all life in the ConSentiency.Binding Type: Paperback

Delightful Addition to My Bathroom!
Size: 3' (Round), Color: Light Blue, Size: 3' (Round), Color: Light Blue
I absolutely love this bath rug! The color is beautiful, and it is incredibly soft underfoot. What truly sets it apart for me is the round shape—it is such a refreshing and stylish change from the standard square or rectangular mats.
I actually love the look and feel of it so much that I purchased a second one and placed them side by side. It creates a wonderful, unique aesthetic in the room. Highly recommended!

Excellent Rug & Unbeatable Customer Service!
Size: 6 x 8 ft Rectangle, Color: White
I absolutely love this rug! It has completely transformed my living room—it looks surprisingly glam and feels wonderfully soft underfoot.
The feature that really sold me was that it's fully washable. I was nervous about cleaning it, but the process was surprisingly easy. I strongly recommend skipping the dryer and letting it air dry. I simply hung mine over my shower door, and it was completely dry overnight. I used a brush to gently separate the fibers, leaving it looking just as vibrant and feeling just as soft as it did when new.
Additionally, I had an interaction with their customer support team, and they were fantastic. They responded to my inquiry quickly, were respectful, and resolved my issue completely and professionally.
I highly recommend this product for anyone looking for a beautiful, practical, and soft rug with stellar customer service backing it up. Five stars!

Soft but no cushion
Size: 2' x 8' (Runner), Color: White
This rug is nice and soft but too thin for me.
It’s very beautiful, it’s soft and fluffy but not enough cushion for my taste
