Swindled Stars

by Adam Pike

About the book

Marten’s a small-time smuggler, just trying to survive on lies and luck until a simple job explodes into chaos. Now he’s got a rat-like alien, a corporate hostage with two personalities, and a shipful of trouble. Pirates, authorities, and his own crew are all after him. Sometimes, the real danger isn’t out there, it’s stuck on board with you.

About the author

Adam Pike first drafted Swindled Stars in 2006 — then lived nineteen transformative years before he was ready to publish it. Those years taught him that the best stories come from characters who survive impossible odds with sarcasm intact and family by their side. Now a self-published author specialising in humorous, character-driven science fiction, Adam writes for readers who love space opera but hate taking things too seriously.
