The planet Zarathustra is listed as uninhabited -- which means that the entire planet can be owned by a corporation.
That owner is the rich and happy Zarathustra Company -- rich and happy, that is, until a prospector named Jack Holloway comes across undocumented species -- a tiny, golden-furred little biped that he dubs Little Fuzzy.
Not only are the Little Fuzzies cute, they're bright too -- in fact, they may be sapient as people are .
and that means everything the Zarathustra company owns on this world is at stake.
