Gate Crashers

Gate Crashers: Book 1

Patrick S. Tomlinson

The only thing as infinite and expansive as the universe is humanity's unquestionable ability to make bad decisions.

Humankind ventures further into the galaxy than ever before... and immediately causes an intergalactic incident. In their infinite wisdom, the crew of the exploration vessel Magellan, or as she prefers, "Maggie," decides to bring the alien structure they just found back to Earth. The only problem? The aliens are awfully fond of that structure.

A planet full of bumbling, highly evolved primates has just put itself on a collision course with a far wider, and more hostile, galaxy that is stranger than anyone can possibly imagine.

Starship Repo

Gate Crashers: Book 2

Patrick S. Tomlinson

Firstname Lastname is a no one with nowhere to go. With a name that is the result of an unfortunate clerical error and the sad reality that she is one of the only humans on an alien space station, things aren't looking too great. Her only entertainment is streaming rock soap operas with her sentient-stone roommate, her source of food is the occasional ability to digest alien cuisine, and her only income is living off the kindness (read: ignorance of all her best cons) of strangers.

That is, until First steals a luxury car belonging to one of the station's "legitimate" businessment. Now she finds herself blackmailed into being a part of a crew of repomen (they are definitely not pirates) just to keep from being arrested.

So she's traveling the galaxy, "recovering" ships and making an actual wage. What could go wrong?
