The Orville meets Red Dwarf for afternoon tea with Rick and Morty on Babylon 5’s Brown Level!

In the first book of this science fiction parody space opera series, garbage freighter Space Scrap 17 is selected for a top-secret mission. Captain Daisy Daryl and XO Michigan Jones must forget their failed romance and work together to save their ship.

But the Doomsday Machine has other ideas, most of them painful…

‘Like [Tom] Robbins, Drake is not only a magnificent storyteller, but also masterful with his language, humour, and snark. The ridiculous and pseudo-surreal nature of certain story details also summon visions of Douglas Adams . . . The writing is immersive and dense, with multilayered jokes and callback humour, as well as witty wordplay on nearly every page.’ The Independent Review of Books

‘. . . it reminds me of Douglas Adam’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series, and I also think fans of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series will find an amicable crossover.’ Amazon Reviewer

‘Like watching a sunrise post-surgery through fentanyl and propofol goggles!’ Editorial Review
