The Audacity - Carmen Loup - Bog

Bag om The Audacity

Rocket racing can be deadly, but working in food service is worse. May's humdrum life is flung into hyperdrive when she's abducted, but not all aliens are out to probe her. She's inadvertently rescued by Xan, an "I Love Lucy" obsessed alien with the orangest rocket ship in the universe. But you still have to eat in space, and rocket racing is a quick, if life-threatening, way to make a living. Finally, May has a career she loves and a friend to share her winnings with. Until a Chaos god possessing Xan's ex-lover decides it's high time this whole "existence of reality" business was over and done with. The Audacity is the only ship fast enough to stop her, but May's no hero, and she doesn't particularly care for reality, anyway. Is literally (yes, literally) everything doomed? Witty, hilarious, and current, The Audacity is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for the next generation. What the people are saying... "A wild ride! I laughed, I gasped, and my face got all wet in the end. A perfect edition for the Audacity series!" "Queer, technicolor, sci-fi joy swaddled within the confines of a book...alien drag shows, interstellar romp with healthy and hilarious relationships." "Like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but with hopeful, loving optimism. And, in no slight to Adams, I think these days, we could use much more of the latter than the former." For fans of... Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Good Omens, Futurama, or Red Dwarf. Author Bio Carmen Loup is a non-binary humorologist, illustrator of Tarot in Space, and creator of The Audacity sci-fi novel and comic book series. They write psychedelic speculative fiction with a hopeful spin that shines through even ridiculously horrible situations.

Beskrivelse af The Audacity

Rocket racing can be deadly, but working in food service is worse.
May's humdrum life is flung into hyperdrive when she's abducted, but not all aliens are out to probe her. She's inadvertently rescued by Xan, an "I Love Lucy" obsessed alien with the orangest rocket ship in the universe. But you still have to eat in space, and rocket racing is a quick, if life-threatening, way to make a living. Finally, May has a career she loves and a friend to share her winnings with. Until a Chaos god possessing Xan's ex-lover decides it's high time this whole "existence of reality" business was over and done with. The Audacity is the only ship fast enough to stop her, but May's no hero, and she doesn't particularly care for reality, anyway. Is literally (yes, literally) everything doomed?
