About this listen

A peaceful organization of civilized planets is faced with a threat to their very existence. Desperate to save themselves, they turn for help to the most brutal, backward, violent species in the known galaxy: humans.

Growing up in the aftermath of an apocalyptic event known as "The Bad Week" hasn't been easy for Cross Agarwal. Decades ago, in a world before The Bad Week, he would have been graduating from college, starting a career, and living on his own. But in a post-apocalyptic time when mankind is in ruins and on the verge of self-destruction, Cross works in his father's subterranean cobra farm, tries to avoid getting involved in the turf war between his town and the Southern Basin, wondering if his future will ever be anything but bleak.

When a group of aliens appears by surprise and invites a select group of humans to join them, it could be Cross's chance to not only find his own place in the universe, but to also help prove that humanity is good for more than just violence.

The best Scott Meyer novel since Magic 2.0

While the wired premise takes a chapter or two to get into, the payoff is huge.

This book is funny with excellent charaters and a lighthearted tone throughout.

Grand Theft Astro was OK, but this is his first stand alone novel that I can see myself coming back to.

Overall, just a really fun read.

Silly but funny

Interesting story that is overall goofy but I was laughing out loud when I listened to it so mission accomplished.

Without giving too much away, the story takes place a generation after of some sort of apocalypse and the world has gone a bit Mad Max-like.

Then some aliens come down to have the ‘worst killers’ help them stop another alien race from killing their own and the adventure begins.

Witty adventure

A great witty adventure. Listened to it on a family road trip and family looked forward to the drive just to listen to the story. One of Scott Meyer’s best books.
