While I breathe, I mock the Grim Reaper!
When Sludge Dragoon’s patrol encounters feral alien hybrids, known as Rattz, his people are wiped out and he’s pinned under rubble. He’s ready to be their smorgasbord, but they don’t eat him, they infect him with their offspring. Sludge accepts his fate: ground zero of an infestation that threatens humanity.
Inconveniently, he survives. The military scientists who rescue him insist the creatures are contained. Sludge knows trouble is certain. When the space station is ripped apart, it’s Sludge, adorned in flannel pajamas and paper shoes, who saves the day.
As the threat spreads across the galaxy, he has a new mission, annihilating the vermin wherever they lurk, except the one who has his back, a softer and kinder version of Rattz that prefers the taste of cherry pie over people.
THE CHRONICLES OF SLUDGE DRAGOON, book 1, is the first installment of a science fiction light-hearted adventure about a back-water space marine who discovers some missions pick themselves.
