Publisher's Summary

A not-quite epic science fiction adventure about a down-on-his luck galactic pilot caught in a cross-galaxy struggle for survival!

Space travel just isn't what it used to be. With the invention of quantum teleportation, space heroes aren't needed anymore. When one particularly unlucky ex-adventurer masquerades as famous pilot and hate figure Jacques McKeown, he's sucked into an ever-deepening corporate and political intrigue. Between space pirates, adorable deadly creatures, and a missing fortune in royalties, saving the universe was never this difficult!

From the creator of Mogworld and Jam! Benjamin Richard "Yahtzee" Croshaw is a British Australian comedic writer, video game journalist, author, and video game developer. He is perhaps best known for his acerbic video game review series, Zero Punctuation, for The Escapist.

Fun story, interesting universe, easy listen.

The story is quite fun, with an interesting universe to explore. It’s well built, not leaning too hard on the over-descriptive over-tech style - rather it’s easy to be absorbed into the story as it flows.

A fun ride.

Tongue in cheek silliness. I enjoyed it enough to purchase the author's next novel. I've seen the author compared to Douglas Adams but I don't think he's as clever.
