About this audiobook
Lincoln doesn’t want trouble. Briar is trouble personified.
Lincoln Caster owes everything he has to the Trash Planet recycling plant that hired him, allowing him to lead an uneventful life for a change. When he’s asked to plan a heist from a less than savory rival factory, he wonders if his checkered past is the only reason he got the job. That is, until he realizes the priceless item he’s been asked to steal will save a top-secret generation ship full of cryopreserved humans…and freakishly intelligent cats.
But first Lincoln has to seduce—or at least fool—the rival factory’s sales agent, cool, competent Briar Pandora, who may or may not be leading a double life as a corporate mole. He’ll have to trust her with the truth…unless her own agenda results in them becoming targets of a vicious intergalactic corporation that will stop at nothing in its quest to hijack generation ships and sell off their parts—and their passengers, be they human or feline.
Editor's Note
Space Cats...
Wallace returns to her “Cat Ship” series, where cats are smarter than humans (they can talk and teleport) but need us because we’ve got opposable thumbs. The series is set in space, but the characters (including the cats) are very familiar. “Catapult” is a fun action-adventure.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was really fun getting to see new characters in an established universe alongside old favorite characters from the last book.
Was well worth the read and I would suggest you check it out as long as you've read catalyst first - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was good. Though it started a little slower, the main characters and cats grew on you as the story progressed. I would read more in the series of they were available.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Not as entertaining as the 1st book, but I believe it is due to the narration.
