John Grimes, astronautical superintendent of Rim Runners and commanding officer of the Rim Worlds Naval Reserve, was tired of being a desk-bound space commodore. So when the chance came for him to do a little personal astronautical trouble-shooting, he didn't ask who, why or what--he just went. Which is how he found himself involved with time-space worlds, predatory starfish, and legendary characters apparently come to life.

Commodore Grimes' wife Sonya is off on a cruise and Grimes gets out from behind his desk and is sent to fix problems on three worlds. Three worlds that he had surveyed back in the day and on which he had played a significant part. He is back to solve current problems and does so handily. Nice to revisit some of the indigenes of older books. Kinsolving's Planet and Clarissa, granddaughter of the original cave man Raul. The pearl fishers of Mellisan. I really liked the first story where Clarissa is being brought back to her grandfather's planet to raise God and she does but not the God the Neo-Calvinists are hoping for...
