The Quality of Life in Outer Space

The Quality of Life in Outer Space — 2017. Available in paperback and Kindle.

Gary is an eagle with a human head. He lives in the bottom of a giant spaceship and watches old soap operas. One morning, his octopus friend looks out the window and sees an asteroid coming. He urges Gary to fly to the top floor and warn the people in charge. Gary has never left the bottom floor in his life, but he reluctantly flies upstairs on a mission to save the ship.

On his journey, he learns the ship left Earth many years ago because the planet was ruined by war and pollution. People flew into space looking for a new world. But a hooded figure known as the Law Master (who talks to his dead mother’s head) overthrew the captain, locked him in a secret place, and took over. Because the Law Master doesn’t know how to fly the ship, he keeps everyone distracted by turning them against each other, causing them to argue. The ship is flying in circles.
