Retief and the Pangalactic Pageant of Pulchritude

Synopsis

Only, perhaps, helping to choose the very fairest of the fair from within the beauteous sisterhood, which was to be another of Retief's duties. Alas, for the notoriously unlovely Groaci not even a contest of cosmic comity is sacred; they will have to learn the hard way that--even though he has somehow been classified as a contestant--Retief is not just another pretty face."--Pg. [4] of cover.
