Summary

What terrible secrets will Tyler Matthews and his star lawyers discover within the forbidden sanctuary on the mysterious, sacred planet Adao-2?

Can the legal team from Matthews Interstellar Industries learn the truth in time to save M-double-I’s century-long quest to open Jump Gate Omega, bridge the 2.5 million light years to the Andromeda galaxy, and prevent economic ruin and war in the Milky Way?

While Tyler, J.B., Rosalie, and Lucy (her shapeshifter cat) battle pirates and religious fanatics, Suzie and her holographic A.I. colleagues - former ladies of the night, re-purposed as legal assistants and starship crew - face an even deadlier foe. This unknown enemy threatens to delete all the starship Patrick Henry’s programs and terminate their existence forever.

To make matters worse, Cousin Esteban languishes in prison on Suryadivan Prime, where the former Catholic monk faces a death sentence for crimes he did not commit.

Rollicking sci-fi fun, packed with humor, romance, and deep space adventure, punctuated with courtroom battles on alien worlds. Fans have dubbed the Star Lawyers series “Star Trek meets Law & Order.”

Light sci-fi with a fun twist, like the first.

While not groundbreaking or epic, Star Lawyers deserves a listen for trying something new. The second book continues to be a fun romp through intergalactic law, with plenty of twisty, saucy storytelling.

Scott Aiello does an amiable performance, although some of the accents may be a little bit racy...

Good story made great by Aiello

Loving this storyline, it’s exciting with twists and humour good enough to make me frequently giggle. I’m from Kansas City so the numerous local references make me smile. Worth your time, well done and perfectly enacted by the multi talented Scott Aiello.
