As far as second books go, this was epic! I knew that most of the plot was going to be about proving Raphyl's innocence, but there were some parts that I did not see coming, particularly Raghael and Mirrie coming out of cryo. The addition of these characters was surprising but welcome because I felt that Tom, Nathan, and Kayleesh would benefit from an adult presence. Book 3 is going to be a firecracker! Those Radiakkans better not invade Earth!

This series is compared to Douglas Adams on the cover. While this novel is an interesting story it doesn't live up to the humour of Adams work. Nevertheless it is an enjoyable read as we follow the adventures of Tom Bowler on an intergalactic service station.
