    About this ebook

    Spencer Blake is in jail, but with unlimited Mojitos and massages, he's just about coping. 

    Soon he is plucked from this hell, and told he must serve as a space pirate for good of The Network (the name given to the colonized solar system), and to get home. These instructions come from an artificial intelligence known as the Negarc, the self proclaimed guardians of humanity. 

    Through tomato smuggling, kidnappings, battling space pirates and a seriously bad hangover, Spencer struggles to stay alive and concious in an adventure that reveals the secret behind the Negarc's actions and reveals an incredible truth about himself.
