About this ebook
But pirating is risky, namely it’s illegal, even in space. And when Rogers is arrested attempting to pull off his biggest con yet, his sentence is re-enlistment. More drinking, grilling, and poker? Rogers couldn’t agree fast enough.
However, the military he left is not the military he finds upon boarding the MPS FLAGSHIP. A conspiracy is afoot, with soldiers doing actual soldier things and AI-droids handling sensitive intelligence. Rogers is the only one who questions the droids' information, but the bureaucracy doesn’t care. Which means his worst nightmare: he might have to do actual work to prevent a war.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The exploits of R Wilson Rogers are ridiculous, hilarious, and entirely accessible for the reader with only a passing acquaintance with the sci-fi genre. Some jokes seemed over-used by the later chapters, but they were still surrounded by original moments which had me snorting.
I listened to this on audio, and audio-books aren't usually my thing, but I decided to give it a go since Joe himself was narrating. And, yeah, it was awesome. (For you Fire Emblem fans, it may take a few chapters to remember that, no, this is not Claude telling a bedtime story to the Golden Deer.)
