PAP. Condition: New. New Book. Shipped from UK. Established seller since 2000.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The ancient, semi-sentient starship Grokmar has a single, unwavering purpose: to gather an intelligent crew and continue its Holy Mission, the exact details of which have been mysteriously lost to time. For centuries, the vessel performed its task flawlessly, but when the advanced silver ship descends upon an unsuspecting, backwoods corner of Earth, it makes a catastrophic error. Instead of finding galactic saviors, it mistakenly collects five wildly unlikely humans: Suddenly flung billions of miles across the cosmos, these humans find themselves marooned on an ancient starship that is utterly unprepared for human biology. Their only sustenance is freshly harvested grass-which the ship, confused by its dietary scans, provides in abundance.When the crew takes shore leave at the infamous Slackttor Station (Sin Station), their chaotic Appalachian ways ignite one interstellar incident after another. Now, the entire galactic government is seeking revenge. Vice-Chancellor Greklor, driven by vengeance, is assembling the largest extermination fleet the galaxy has ever seen, dedicated to finding Earth and eradicating the entire human species.Marooned billions of miles from home, the misfit crew must rely on their unique, chaotic survival skills and an uneasy alliance with the enigmatic Sheanna'Ree-a woman on the run whose influential father promises to halt the armada-if they hope to save their world from total extinction. Can the GalaxyBillies outwit the galaxy's elite before humanity is wiped out forever? This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
