About this book
Sjambak is by Jack Vance. The blurb says Wilbur Murphy sought romance, excitement, and an impossible Horseman of Space, and that the planet frustrated him at every turn with polite smiles until he found them all the hard way. Howard Frayberg is the Production Director of Know Your Universe!, a man of sudden unpredictable moods, and Sam Catlin is the show's Continuity Editor.
Murphy says it's not superstition, while Frayberg says what they can use is a sequence on Sirgamesk superstition. A man named Trimmer calls himself Resident Director of the Import-Export Bank and says Cirgamesç isn't a comfortable tourist planet, too confined and shut in. Murphy says that when it comes to fighting, a sjambak can lick twenty men in space-suits. A speaker says a normal man living under those domes has to let off steam somehow, and that Prince Ali decided to go out crusading.
