Kings of the World

The galaxy is on the brink of war. Four dysfunctional, hormone-driven teenagers from Earth are its only hope. God help us all.
Cooper Simpson's life was going averagely fine until he and reality-challenged gaming buddy The Ginge come to blows with school thug Knuckles and his shifty sidekick Pete. A viral video of Cooper's accidental beatdown win triggers a cosmologically unlikely chain of events that leads the four to space as Earth's representatives at the Galactic Council.
That's correct, they're officially Earth's A-team.
What they lack in political nous, teamwork and experience, they make up for in gaming skills and music taste (in some cases). But even with the attention of a variety of aliwomen, and the universal translator ready to deliver their every desire, all is not as it seems - a conspiracy is quietly unravelling that could tear the galaxy apart.
War is brewing and our out-of-their-depth leaders are in the thick of it. Gulp.
Epic action, punchy dialogue, inappropriate jokes, pop culture references and an intergalactic adventure that could go anywhere. Strap yourself in
Because in space, no one can hear you shart.
Book 1 of the Starship Dorsano Chronicles. Revenge & Qualia (Book 3) coming 2027.
Also available as an audiobook.
