    About this audiobook

    Laser-sharp zingers and out-of-this-world puns pile up at an astronomical pace in this zero gravitas sci-fi spoof from the author of Witches Be Crazy.

    Never meddle with unidentified spying objects . . .

    The year is: The Future. Mars and Earth are like that divorced couple who don’t exactly like each other but have at least stopped fighting in public. Floating somewhere in between them, amid all the garbage and Gene Roddenberry’s ashes, a transport vessel called the SS Jefferson is homeward bound. Its crew might have even made it on time for once, too…

    Captain Cox is no stranger to encountering the odd pickle in space, but when a tantalizingly derelict ship crosses paths with the Jefferson, he unwittingly parks in the middle of a NASA-ty interplanetary squabble. Faced with a marauding Martian and a squad of snobby secret agents, Cox and crew embark on a mad scramble across the solar system, to save themselves from either murder-via-space rifle of imprisonment in the notorious Guantanamo Docking Bay. Maybe they’ll also get around to dealing with the biological weapon that accidentally wound up in their fridge, too.

    Join Logan J. Hunder (Witches be Crazy) in this riotously funny send-up of spaceships and space exploration. Discover adventure, love, loss, gain, losing what was gained, gaining some of it back, and all the different ways the Outer Space Treaty can be violated.

      Aside from bashing a man just because everyone else is, aka Orange T, loved it.
    • 5/5
      Lots of times books bring me to tears. But this... OMG. This made me laugh, so Fi8n hard it was unbelievable. This is a great comedic thrill ride. A thing of hilarious misadventure, and illogical luck.
    • 4/5
      Nice feelgood storyline. With space assasins and parasitic threat to the universe.
    • 5/5
      The description reads something like "full of funny quips blah blah blah" 100% true, did not disappoint
