I thought the book was interesting, and there was this one character who was very nice, and he cared about the whole Galaxy. His name is Jack he cared so much that he nearly got his self and his friends killed, they were on a spaceship, there were these pepople who pretended that they were good and nice people, and that they neeeded help, because they said they were stuck and someone was trying to kill thir race. They were singing so peacefully until, Jack and his friends, got close to a Black hole and the those people, just morphed into space pirates and they started laughing and smacking there theeth ready to eat the pieces left of Jack and his friends when they crash into the black hole, when they die but one of Jack's friends Lothar (Loaf) he used his flying skills to escape from the Black hole.
