Denne bog handler om mine oplevelser under og efter 2. verdenskrig på Lolland, men mest om mit møde med Vuk og hans folk som kom fra De 12 Ringes Planet. Jeg fik lov til at være sammen med dem og skulle skrive alt ned jeg oplevede. Og det gjorde jeg. Jeg har prøvet at have deres dragter på og fløjet med dem i deres trekantede fly og så hvordan de var indrettet - jeg har spist sammen med dem samt oplevet mange spændende ting som beskrevet, og mit indtryk af dem er, at de er meget hjælpsomme og omsorgsfulde og at de vil os det godt.
