'Our dashing protagonist, Australian folk hero and occasional murderer Ned Kelly, finds himself in somewhat of a pickle.

Pursued by the boys in blue whilst liberating money from the bank at Euroa, our favourite bushranger is rescued by a mysterious stranger.

Ned is given some special goggles, the likes of which he has never seen before. When he puts them on, the awful truth is revealed - the nascent settlement of Victoria has been colonised not only by the Imperialist English, but also by a race of marauding aliens! And most of the aliens seem to be masquerading as Policemen.

Thus confirming, boys and girls, that you should never trust the rozzers...'

'Heaven's alive! Things are going from bad to worse for our true blue Aussie hero (and wanted felon) Ned Kelly.

The nascent settlement of Victoria has been colonised by aliens. Ned has been recruited by genius inventor Henry Sutton to lead the resistance movement. And, as if he didn't have enough on his plate, Ned's philandering past has also come back to haunt him.

Ned's old flame Alice Sherritt has betrayed him to Baratha, the leader of the aliens, who masquerades as Colonial Judge Sir Redmond Barry.

And, Baratha's crew have in turn kidnapped Ned's fiancee Ettie!

So, young Gentleman readers, let Ned's unfortunate predicament provide a cautionary reminder that hell indeed hath no fury like a woman scorned...

With Ettie captured, Alice enraged, and Sutton's teenage daughter Tabitha fast developing a crush on him, our favourite bushranger certainly has his hands full!'
