Another excellent SF tale in the Space Pilot Grainger series that does what SF does best - make you think about the human condition. When a world of Eden-like qualities is discovered Grainger and team are sent in to investigate. Stableford puts forward some fascinating xeno-biology concepts as well as examining the politics and aggressions of humanity as a species. But the later part that reveals corporations that operate outside government control, and the sudden appearance of a virus driven plague that people won’t believe in - that seemed a bit far fetched!!

In a galactic culture that extends from quasi-utopian worlds like New Alexandria to the vermin-infested slums of Old Earth, the Star-Pilots are the great heroes of the day, and Grainger has become a legend in his own time. Pharos is paradise--or so it appears. But the champions of commerce want to package and sell the planet, and the conservationists want to stop them. Grainger's employer, Titus Charlot, is enlisted to negotiate a settlement, but the game is rigged. Charlot needs the Star-Pilot's help, but there seems to be nothing he can do--until the planet's ecosystem takes a hand, and "paradise" suddenly turns deadly! Hooded Swan, Book Four.
