The Lonely Planet

There is nothing quite like the feeling of being the first human to stand on a new planet. There's nothing quite like the shock of finding that there are already humans there! And when one of them is stunningly beautiful and claims to be a Roman, well - what would you do?

George does it, and finds that his life becomes immensely pleasurable but also vastly complicated as his alien wife springs one surprise on him after another. And then comes the friendly warning that leaves an unsolved mystery for a bored newspaperman to discover half a century later.
