Nothing could possibly go wrong. Probably. Maybe...

Aspiring smuggler Jack Tressler is used to taking misfortune in stride. When he's subscripted into a pirate gang, getting an ill-fitting cybernetic eye and his losing dignity are the least of his worries. 

Jack soon finds himself roped into a crazy heist of a prototype energy core as recompense for a crime he didn't commit, and the job is anything but straightforward. To get the core, Jack's team must break into a secure research facility, but they aren't the only group after the groundbreaking device.

With rabid pirates, ruthless corporations, and a scorned former employer all vying for the same bounty, Jack and his new friends will need all their wits and snark to survive until their next meal.

This farcical space opera adventure is perfect for fans of Spaceballs, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and Space Team. WARNING: Contains puns, spoofs of genre tropes, nonsensical situations for comedic effect, inexplicable food mashups, poor decision-making, and a gerbil.

This sample contains the first four chapters of the novel. Get the complete book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DJ5ZQC1

The Opposite of Falling Apart by titanically-
66 parts Complete
WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . . What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart. Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about. To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . . When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start. Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
