SPACED blurb
Being a secret agent is hard when you’re terrible at secrets and prone to distraction.

Jas’s first mission is simple: land on Earth and impersonate a local named Travis Lock to gather intel on Travis’s mysterious aunt Evelyn. Within hours, he’s crashed his mother’s runabout into the ocean, transformed into a talking pug, witnessed a murder, and accidentally fallen for the very guy he’s supposed to manipulate.

Travis is having the week from hell. Someone’s been killed and the police think he did it, plus there’s a telepathic dog claiming to be an alien who knows that Travis’s supposedly dead mother is actually alive—and in danger. Oh, and the dog wants to be besties.

Forced together by circumstance and cosmic incompetence, Travis and Jas (Jas is a boy again – don’t panic) form an unlikely friendship that quickly becomes something more. Together, they uncover the truth about Evelyn Lock’s abduction—one that will reshape everything they thought they knew about family, trust, and what can be achieved with a wedge of cheese.

Because some bonds transcend origins. Some romances rewrite destiny. And some secrets are worth crossing galaxies to unveil.

An intergalactic joyride that is hilarious, exhilarating, and utterly unpredictable, SPACED is a genre-bending sci-fi adventure about found family, terrible decisions, and unlikely romance.

John, I've read The Eternal Observer. Other than some minor errors (I assume editing isn't complete?), I want to point out a few things. First, the narrator is never identified. Maybe you don't need one? Also, how can a humanoid survive atop an asteroid in space? Other than that, I loved it. It was brilliant and clever. I'll give it a 5-star review on Amazon and GR when published.

But I noticed that when I searched for the book here on GR and clicked on the author's name, it pulled up a different John Griffin. I think you can contact GR to correct that. Best of luck with the book!
