The Lucky Starman is now available
Yay! The Lucky Starman is now available on Amazon. This is the third adventure of Leif the Lucky. It has a gorgeous cover from Alejandro Colucci that creates some dissonance with the title. There's a reason for that. Leif finds himself stranded in orbit, viewing a destroyed civilization on Earth through the screens of a starship that is running out of food and fuel. Is Leif really Lucky? He
