Ministry Of Disturbance

Ministry of Disturbance

by H. Beam Piper

Ministry of Disturbance is a humorous science fiction novel that takes place in a stagnant interstellar empire where nothing new is allowed to happen. The emperor, Paul, is aware of the problem but is powerless to change the centuries-old bureaucracy. As the plot develops, an alleged coup attempt against Paul unveils, and the story builds to an exciting and satisfying climax.
