How To Run A Hotel In Deep Space
He ran a failing hotel on Earth. Now he’s running a failing hotel in outer space.
Simon Jones was barely keeping it together as manager of a rundown seaside hotel on England’s south coast.
Then the aliens arrived and wiped out humanity.
Saved by a mysterious extraterrestrial who wants to put him in a zoo, Simon’s fate takes a sharp turn when he’s tricked into signing the deed to a failing space hotel. Now he’s personally liable for its crushing debts—and if he tries to hide the bankruptcy, the punishment is vaporisation.
To survive, Simon must somehow turn the hotel around. But with no money, a sarcastic alien front desk clerk, and a guest list packed with space pirates, diva pop stars, galactic cops, and—worst of all—a hotel inspector, things quickly spiral out of control. One minute he’s unclogging slime from the vents, the next he’s hunting down a rare alien bird egg for the kitchen.
Can an Earthling with no experience and absolutely no clue survive the galaxy’s toughest hospitality industry? Or will Simon soon be checking out—permanently?
How To Run A Hotel In Deep Space is the first book in the Tales From A Deep Space Hotel series by bestselling author Hadwin Fuller. If you love stories where an ordinary human gets thrown headfirst into an alien universe, you’ll love this fast-paced, laugh-out-loud space adventure.

About the author
Hadwin Fuller
18 books8 followersHadwin Fuller is the author of the space opera series Star Inferno. He writes sci-fi novels packed to the air seals with blaster brawls, space dogfights and misfit crews of loveable weirdos who are forced to band together to save the universe.
Like most sci-fi writers, Hadwin is the victim of a misspent youth (he blames his parents) in which his head was buried far too often in sci-fi novels and far too rarely in schoolbooks. It is from this vast expanse of wasted time that he channels his inner sci-fi writer.
Hadwin lives in Vietnam with his wife, newborn baby and robot vacuum cleaner. When he’s not pressing his eyeballs up against the display of his e-reader, Hadwin can be found blasting around town on his motorbike, loafing around in coffee shops and eating his way through every Vietnamese food they have a name for.
