{"product_id":"the-draco-tavern","title":"The Draco Tavern","description":"When a tremendous spacecraft took orbit around the Earth's moon and began sending smaller landers down toward the North Pole, the newly arrived visitors quickly set up a permanent spaceport in Siberia. Their presence attracted many, and a few people grew conspicuously rich from secrets they learned from talking to the aliens. One of these men, Rick Schumann, established a tavern catering to all of the various species of visiting aliens, a place he named the Draco Tavern.\nFrom the mind of #1 \"New York Times\" bestselling author Larry Niven come twenty-six tales and vignettes from this interplanetary gathering place, collected for the first time in one volume, including:\n\"The Subject Is Closed\": A priest visits the tavern and goes one-on-one with a chirpsithra alien on the subject of God and life after death.\n\"Table Mannners: A Folk Tale\": Rick Schumann is invited to hunt with five folk aliens, but he's not quite sure what their hunt entails, or if he will be the hunted.\n\"Losing Mars\": In this previously unpublished tale, a group of aliens who call Mars and its moon home arrive at the tavern only to find that humans have mostly forgotten about their neighboring planet.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0765386437\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0765386437.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Niven, Larry\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
