Meet the Goddess of Love... — Silverlock started with a shipwreck. These new adventures begin with a barroom brawl and a surprise visit from Venus, goddess of love and other natural disasters. "Hi, Sugar," she says, "got a match?" — From that moment on George is a man with a mission -- a pilgrim in pursuit of happiness on a road traveled by folks a scientist rarely meets: the happy-go-lucky ne'er-do-wells of the arts.. Will George survive? The high road to his heart's desire is paved with quite enough perils for one star-crossed scientist -- forced by fate to learn the arts of love and letters. Stay tuned...
