Ratrigues is a clever, cranky rodent who just happens to find his way to an "on-board" party on a ship in Amsterdam. The party is a little much for Ratrigues, and soon, he ends up drunk and passed out. When he awakens, the ship is no longer in Amsterdam. In fact, it's halfway around the bulge of Africa, set for Cape Town! Once in Cape Town, Ratrigues—thirsty for a quick hangover fix—discovers a local bar, the Rat & Roach. Here, he meets a sociable clan of rats and roaches who tell him about the unfortunate events in South Africa's District Six. District Six is set for redevelopment; many rodents and roaches will lose their homes, and there isn't much time before they will be forced to leave. This unlikely band of brothers heads out into the South African wilderness in search of a new area to reestablish their tightly knit community. The laws of the food chain are thrown out the window as rat, mouse, and roach band together to create new homes and new friendships in tumultuous 1960s Africa.

For Ratrigues, there had to be a much better way to start the day than with an awakening one could only describe as rude-what with unexpected visitors landing a spacecraft right next to his home. Even so, what this unwelcome introduction to his early morning heralds is, he feels, quite worth getting up for. He learns that he's part of a select group of friends recruited-somewhat against their will, it must be said-into a whirlwind adventure to the far reaches of outer space. Their destination is the mysterious and bizarre solar system known as Roach 379, where the ubiquitous organisation known as Aye-Aye originated. Mandrake, the first rodent to be introduced into this clandestine society of roaches, has to go on a pilgrimage. Along with some friends selected for moral support, he is also off to this very solar system. Little does he know that there is a far more important reason for his voyage. The fate of all cockroaches throughout the universe hangs in the balance. What lies at the root of this disturbing calamity? Can Mandrake, the head of the druidic Musculus Medicinale save them?

A great ego is not an indicator of great intelligence. Very often, it is quite the opposite. And very often, it is the greatest egos who take control of government, business, and most aspects of life. With great egos often comes aggressiveness, and those not inflicted often step aside when the aggressive take over. Those who serve out of a sense of duty and a need to help others seem to be in the minority, and to them, conflict is something to be avoided, when possible.
