+ Want to read

The fastest way to get ahead in Kzin society is to cut through the endless challenges and duels to the death—and take on your father. But Chuut-Riit, Planetary Governor of occupied planet Wunderland, is teaching his kits a new way—the way of the humans. And the humans don't like it, at all. Expanded from parts of Man-Kzin Wars II and Man-Kzin Wars III.
