A contemporary, comic sci-fi adventure with heart.Ever since being given a name no one can pronounce, Scharlette’s been stuck in a bit of a rut. She hates her job in airport security, owns a small apartment with large repayments, and drinks bargain bin red on a couch that swallows gym memberships. Every day she watches people fly away to exotic locations she can only dream of – after she makes them take their belts off, of course.Scharlette fears she might live her whole life without doing anything or mattering to anyone. Still, it comes as quite a surprise when a handsome time traveller arrives from the future and tells her she’s correct – that, according to his records, she doesn’t matter at all.Scharlette doesn’t think this news is too wonderful, but as she soon learns, having no impact on the timeline whatsoever means she’s free to blast off into space, and have amazing adventures with heedless abandon.“The book is charming and riotously funny. The most enjoyable aspect of the story is its unpredictability.” – Aurealis MagazineExcerptScharlette rubbed her temples as she woke, hastily compiling information. She was in a spaceship, high above the Earth, speaking with Gordon, an advanced AI from the future. Or perhaps she was in an insane asylum talking to a mouse? It was difficult to be sure. One thing was certain – she was definitely going to be late for work.‘Gordon,’ she said, and then so many questions jostled for attention she had trouble focusing on one in particular.‘Yes, Miss Scharlette?’‘What’s the time?’‘I’m afraid that is quite difficult to answer, as perspectives tend to differ wildly. However, internal ship time is currently 64:38:91.’‘Right.’‘PM.’“It’s hard to describe why this book is good without spoiling a single part of it.” – Two Doctors Media CollaborativeReader Reviews ????? “So refreshingly different” – Goodreads????? “a solid sci-fi romp, and this is one of the few times when "romp" is exactly the right description” – Goodreads????? “I have never laughed so much while reading a book!” – Amazon US????? “absolutely the best treatment of time travel all wrapped up in chuckles and spurts of laughter punctuated with moments of sheer terror culminating in a very satisfying ending.” – Amazon US????? “I will read it again when I'm having a bad day and need my spirits lifted.” – Amazon US????? “Scharlette is intelligent, real, relatable and very witty.” – Goodreads????? “dazzlingly colourful, endlessly endearing” – Goodreads????? “genuinely fun ... a proper joy.” – Amazon UK????? “I loved this book much more than I had expected” – Goodreads

Such an enticing, chilling, marvellous story, with a unique, fierce leading character. I fell in love with the story within a few sentences. 11/10. Absolutely amazing!????? The story moves, the written structure is excellent, the verbal and inner dialogue are very real, and the portrayal of emotion, conflict, attachment, love and hate that are normally pretty hard to pull off are done with mastery.????? Amazing series! I had 3 sleepless nights because I just could not put this, or the other books in the series, down until they were read from the title page to references!????? This was so brilliant! If I mix a bit of The Hunger Games, Helix, and The Walking Dead (minus the zombies) together I can only approximate how amazing this book is.????? WOW!! Incredible!! Visceral!! One of the best books I've read in the genre.????? The strong female character is extremely rare and fresh.????? Probably the best tale I have read in months.????? Hands down, one of the best post-apocalyptic books I have ever read.
