Summary "The Problem Makers" by Robert Hoskins is a science fiction narrative published in the early 1960s. The story explores themes of power, strategy, and the complexities of governance within a galaxy filled with diverse civilizations grappling with their own unique challenges. The book delves into a satirical examination of how problems are deliberately created and exacerbated as characters navigate their treacherous world. The storyline follows various characters, including Luke Royceton and Sam Carter, who operate in an environment where manipulation and deceit are commonplace. As Luke leads teams on destructive missions against primitive villages, Sam maneuvers through court intrigue, aiming to influence the power dynamics of the ruling elite. The characters' journeys interweave moments of dark humor and commentary on human nature, revealing the absurdities of their actions and the consequences of governance. Ultimately, the book highlights the motivations behind power struggles and the often unintended consequences of those in positions of authority. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
