Picked it up from an Amazon sale. A nice respite from more serious sci-fi series and, like other reviews, reminds me of Guardians of the Galaxy. Perfect if you're looking for a fun and humorous plot

This was a really fun little (space) book. It was funny, and not in a forced, trying too hard, way. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, and I fell in love with the band of misfit characters, especially Splurt. If you do read this one, be sure to also read the author note at the end.

The humor was very on the head and not subule. Going more for humorous than hard sci-fi.

Fun, fast story. Some good twists along the way. Can't wait to read book 2.

This is just one of those stupid forgettable but fun books.
Basically, you know Guardians of the Galaxy? You know just those bits that are funny? Yep, that is this book pretty much. Does it make a compelling novel? Nah. But does it make me smile? Yeah.
That's this book, a smile. There are other comedic space science fiction books, they are probably better too, but this one? This one was short and funny and I will continue the series.
I recommend this book to anyone who likes Hard Luck Hank, Guardians of the Galaxy, Willful Child, or any other light hearted scifi.
