Galloper's Quests is a reworking of Gulliver's Travels set in outer space which focuses on the human desire to be given rules and beliefs and the opposing drive to question everything. Samuel Galloper is a U. S. Navy captain and a genius scientist. He invents a propulsion system that opens wormholes and can also be turned into a weapon. He escapes Earth’s wagers of war and he visits three planets whose inhabitants exhibit very different ways of dealing with life. He becomes an agent for change in the armed conflict between two of the planets. Along the way he befriends a witty robot and falls in love with an extraterrestrial who might know more about humanity than Galloper does. As Galloper nears the end of his quests, he must weigh the risks of returning to Earth. Will his invention fall into the wrong hands? Will anyone believe his story about his intergalactic travels? What fate awaits his new love if she goes with him?
