Zeno’s Last Grain by Jay Gaskell

A comical spree of interstellar hijinks with genocidal stakes, Zeno’s Last Grain by Jay Gaskell is a wonderfully weird launchpad for the out-of-this-world Galaxy Marshals series. Spilling onto the page in a manic flood of sci-fi action, dumb luck, and unwarranted moxie, these are the misadventures of Jon Simmons, interstellar delivery man, as he rampages through space to clean up an epic mess of his own creation. The writing has as many plot holes as wormholes, the characters are goofy, and the prose would benefit from a merciless edit, but the endless stream of near-misses and sharply clever comebacks makes this cosmic caper a rip-roaring read.
