Space Junk (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578609713)

The time is the distant future. The location is a remote corner of the cosmos, inside the cluttered living room of a crummy space junker on its way to nowhere. Its disheveled inhabitant goes by the name Adam Jones. His only mission in life is to collect enough scrap to maintain his videotape habit and support his local beer hole. But "life" as Adam knows it is about to be turned upside down when he discovers a hunk of junk that attracts the attention of every broke scrapper, debt collector, crime lord, warlord, and TV team in the United Empires. With the help of his wily grandfather and a mysterious feline stranger, Adam is about to risk life and love in pursuit of financial freedom, even as the rest of the universe threatens to reduce him to space junk.

The debut novel from author Andrew Bixler, Space Junk is a sprawling sci-fi adventure full of space, scrap, and videotapes. If you're a fan of Ready Player One, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, or Cowboy Bebop, Space Junk might be just the book you've been waiting for. Then again, what the fish do I know?
