Book Description

1995
ALASPIN "MY WORLD...AND WELCOME TO IT!"

Accompanied by his faithful minidrag Pip and a most troublesome alien called Abalamahalamatandra --Ab, for short -- Flinx Flinx set out for Alaspin, the ruggedly primitive homeplanet of his flying snake.

There he hoped to find the giant man with the gold earring who somehow held the key to Flinx's mysterious past and to the strange powers he possessed. Chasing down his heritage was trouble enough, but Flinx didn't know what real trouble was until he realized that the Qwarm -- a deadly assassin squad -- were three steps behind him with a contract to kill.

But the minidrag's homeplanet did not offer safety and Flinx had a terrible time just staying alive...a matter complicated to no mean degree by a collapsar already set on an unstoppable death course across the galaxy!

This is #4 in Pip & Flinx Novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Skua September (from the Icerigger trilogy), saves Flinx, September 25, 2001
By 
Adam Missner (Roswell, GA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The End Of The Matter picks up just after where Orphan Star leaves off. Flinx, now owner of a space ship, returns to Moth to continue his search for his lineage. After a few of those events that Flinx always finds himself in the middle of, he ends up with a new pet, a strange alien named Ab. Flinx, Ab and Pip then head off to another world in search of a man who bid on Flinx when he was a child slave. That man, Skua September (fresh from the Icerigger trilogy), saves Flinx just in time for his friend Tse-Mallory and Tru to show up in search of Ab (of all things, amazing coincidence). At any rate, it gets a little far-fetched as Ab eventually saves several populated planets from being sucked into a black hole (of sorts). Still, this is solid SciFi adventure and worth a read as part of the larger Flinx series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Like the rest of the Flinx and Pip series... EXCELENT, July 19, 1999
By A Customer
This book is in my favorite series of sci-fi stories. Flinx and Pip. As with the rest of the series it has a great story, with a good mix of Plot, Charicter developement, and technology. In this story, flinx finds out about his past... and why he cant find out more. to find out what he finds out, I would suggest reading the book- YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Flinx meets Skua September and saves the galaxy!, February 21, 1998
By A Customer
Flinx meets Skua September (famous pirate/hero character from Foster's Icerigger series) and wind up in a fast paced adventure that puts them on a course of destruction. They wind up saving the galaxy after an incredible series of adventures! I loved it! My two favorite Foster characters in one adventure after another! What more could a Foster SF fan ask for!
