It's a geek's dream combination: mix Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a Space Shuttle caper, and a beautiful-brilliant computer wiz femme fatale who just happens to be cooking up some smart AI. I laughed out loud during many sections, and was glued to the book throughout.
The characters and their motivations are just awesome. Hel and her father want to set up a media company to shoot a reality TV show in space. Except that it's set in present day, and of course, it's not that easy to get into space. They recruit an ex-NASA shuttle astronaut, and decide to steal a space shuttle. What can go wrong? :)
I found it to be really funny. It's book one of a series, and it wraps up the first part of the story quite nicely, so I'm eager to see what direction Doug Sharp will take us in book two. Either way I'm looking forward to it.
You can get it from Amazon and other retailers.
