Plot

Piel, a 7 or 8 year old boy, is alone on the desert planet Perdide, only survivor of an attack by giant hornets. Calling for help, Piel's father's friend Jaffar keeps contact with the kid and hurries across space toward Perdide.

For Piel, a little boy stranded on Perdide--a desert planet where giant killer hornets live--the only thing that connects him to the rest of the world is Mike: a state-of-the-art interstellar transceiver handed to him by his father, Claude. As Mike manages to send a distress signal, Piel must do everything in his power to get in touch with Claude's friend, Jaffar, an intrepid space adventurer, to stand a fighting chance in the inhospitable celestial body. However, will Jaffar make it in time?—Nick Riganas

Piel, a little boy, is left marooned on the planet Perdide after both his parents have been killed by giant hornet-like aliens. Thankfully an emergency transmitter provides him with instantaneous communication with Jaffar, an adventurer who was a friend of his father. This Jaffar convinces the current passengers on his ship, an exiled prince and princess, that a rescue mission must be undertaken. Its a long way to Perdide though, so Jaffar first picks up an old technician who knows that planet. Together with two telepathic aliens they start their mission to save Piel, all the time talking to the boy and trying to avoid him walking into danger. But on the way to Perdide, Jaffar and his friends encounter a lot of trouble themselves, including a hive of malignant angels and what seems to be a traitor in their midst
