I thought volunteering to be put into cryostasis for three days would be a great way to make some extra cash.

Strange, human-animal hybrids are now part of our struggling societies. And perhaps strangest of all, magic is now real. Yeah, I'm still trying to process that one.

Delivery jobs don’t usually come with a side of heroism. Husband and wife duo Jay and Char run a transport starship-for-hire. They haul cargo and passengers across the galaxy—for the right price. Is it the prestigious job Jay’s mother wished he had? No, but disappointing her was nothing new. When a pair of nonhuman travelers booked passage on Jay and Char’s ship, they failed to mention the whole host of trouble they’d be bringing with them. Now, the fate of the galaxy is in jeopardy, and it’s somehow up to a pair of middle-aged interplanetary freight haulers to fix it.

The human race has been played for a fool. Though welcomed into the galactic community and given access to the combined knowledge of thousands of intelligent species, humans are largely regarded as an evolutionary mistake. Reptilian, insectoid, and other unclassifiable species are the dominant forms of intelligence. If it hadn't been for that annoying comet, the dinosaurs would have continued their evolutionary journey to sentience. Instead the ridiculous mammalians survived. And they want to be treated as equals.
