First part of book more interesting than the latter part but the characters were enjoyable
The Galactic Empire's Coordinating Computer should have a wonderfull thing for mankind. Being able to match planets and an endless variety of alien lifeforms. But should even that complex and wonderous a machine be in charge of directing humans. It is up to a psychic weasel, a telepathic hermit crab, and a very sensuous imperial agent to seek out a forbidden world which now threatens the future of Earth and countless other worlds as the renegade leader Piebald has learned how to control the Computer across both time and space.
