Dr. Brute: New Adventures of Sax Rohmer in the 23rd Century

Meet Sax Rohmer and Colonel Loudermilk, 23rd-century detectives on a desperate mission to save the human species on New Earth.

The parallel planet of New Earth has lost most of its advanced technology since the time-space wormhole connecting it to the earth failed a century before, stranding human settlers with technologies like 1900 among humanoid aliens.

Sax Rohmer calls the colonel out of retirement with news that Dr. Brute, an insane Fox-scientist, has invaded the human colony to exterminate all human life on New Earth. A hybrid of supernatural charisma, Brute has revived instruments of death from lost technology and alien lore. Even Sax cannot predict his next move--only that it will employ inscrutable tools of destruction.

Human security forces are helpless. Sax and the colonel fight Brute alone, advised by the colonel's time-traveling Cat girlfriend. Will Sax's affair with Vixen, an alluring Fox assassin in Dr. Brute's employ, doom them or save them? And is the Doctor even mortal, or a Fox-god come to life?
