It was just another gig for Zena Starr–okay, maybe a surprisingly lucrative one–but planetary princes have lots of money and being an intergalactic pop star does have its perks–but nothing seems to go right.

Her starship is down for repairs, so she has to take a podship. The costumes she’s been told to wear are covered in gold to the point of ridiculousness. The functionary who meets her when she arrives seems to be overly interested in freeways and low-density zoning (never a good sign). And before too long, she and her android backup dancer, A3, find themselves locked in cages (with gold-colored bars, of course).

But things really take a turn for the worse when someone shows up to the party with a giant mutant tiger-swan named Shimmer and the bored prince releases it just to see what happens.

Killer Gold is full of funky personalities that shine in stressful moments, and there is definitely no shortage of danger. It’s a wild world you’ll wont want to leave.
