Once King of the planet Lepora, Nick Vixel was now a simple miner and master gem cutter living in Lone Tree, a small town in mid-west North America. His plans to open a jewelry shop are interrupted by reactor overloads, a visit by a child he didn't know he had, and his sister arriving to put an end to him once and for all. Then the fun really starts.

Cutter is another story from the Parthenon universe, a story of hope, perseverance, and success in the face of impossible odds.
