Hans Jambor asked Tig Carson:

What has influenced your writing? I thought of the old movie The Ice Pirates when I read it your book, A Space Story.

Tig Carson Hey Hans! I'd have to say my writing was mostly influenced by two things - Growing up surrounded by lots of trees (gave me lots of time to daydream and explore) and getting to watch tons of really cheesy 80's movies and television. Ice Pirates was definitely one of them! That movie was like a demented, sarcastic, Star Wars! Perfect fodder for a kid my age.

I want to thank you for giving my book a read! I hope it brought you some pleasure, and several chuckles. Now if you don't mind, all this talk has got me in the mood to watch Ice Pirates again. It's been too long!
