Tambu by Robert Lynn Asprin $4 Ace Books (1980) A very highly rated book! For years the mysterious figure known only as Tambu has held the settled planets in his iron grip. The fleet of pirates and criminals under his command have established and maintained a reign of terror and extortion, successfully defying all efforts of the newly-formed Defense alliance to halt or curb their activities. Now, for the first time, a reporter has been granted an interview with Tambu: the story will finally be told of Tambu's origin, his rise to power, and – most important – his philosophies and logic for running his force. If Tambu can be believed. And if the reporter is allowed to leave with his story. Cover art by Rowena Morrill. .
