Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans.

And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Life couldn’t be better…until Andrew begins to pick up on the facts that (1) every Away Mission involves some kind of lethal confrontation with alien forces; (2) the ship’s captain, its chief science officer, and the handsome Lieutenant Kerensky always survive these confrontations; and (3) at least one low-ranked crew member is, sadly, always killed.

The adventure begun in Corey Naylor – Space Janitor concludes here. Corey Naylor has one mop, one suspicious organism and one very bad idea. The pirates control the bridge, hold the captain and are loading the ship’s most valuable hostages into a detachable luxury module. Unfortunately for...
