Meet Rex Mercury: once a high-flying corporate executive, now a down-on-his-luck smuggler after a very public affair with the boss's wife. His life of illicit oxygen tanks and questionable Martian dust deliveries takes a spectacular nose-dive when he's betrayed, his ship is stolen, and he's jettisoned into the cold, unforgiving vacuum of space.
Luckily, he's scooped up by Zephyr, a kazoo-playing, kombucha-brewing space hippie whose vibes are as good as his ship is... harmoniously repurposed. Now, Rex wants his ship back. And Zephyr? He's all about galactic balance.
But what starts as a simple mission for revenge quickly spirals into a cosmic chase across Mars, the Moon, and the treacherous Asteroid Belt. Rex, Zephyr, and Glyphs (his perpetually hungry, seven-legged Martian lizard) stumble headfirst into a conspiracy so wild, it involves alien bioweapons, mad scientists, corporate titans, a very awkward reunion with an ex-lover, and the fate of Earth itself!
If you like your sci-fi thrillers served with a generous side of laugh-out-loud humor, wildly imaginative characters, and a plot that's as unpredictable as a rogue asteroid, then The Lizard, the Smuggler, and the Space Hippie is your next must-read!
Can Rex save the galaxy without losing his sanity (or his dignity)? Find out today - grab your copy and join the chaos!
