Life in the Greater Communicating Universe isn't easy. But death now that has its perks. For Rollie Tsmorlood, escaping a prison planet that no one ever survives... well, it's more than a smart lifestyle choice. It's the perfect chance to unleash some covert revenge. But when someone steals the number three for ransom, suddenly Rollie's not the only one looking for justice. Universal systems have ground to a halt. A third of the universe is trapped in a mysterious viral field. Even the Earth's stuck in a looky-no-touchy zone.

He's discovered the thrill of second chances, the power of cold, hard cash... and he's more than certain his planet's endured enough. Soon, Rollie and Bertram are caught up in a confounding case of cosmic conspiracy, two-faced dames, hot pursuit and lukewarm vending machine seafood. Can Rollie and Bertram track down the numeroterrorist, free the GCU and rescue Rollie's greatest nemesis... before their own numbers are up?
They say you can't go home again. But some people never listen. Earth- known to the rest of the universe as Tryfe. No matter what you call it, the little blue planet's had its share of hard knocks. It's been bought and sold to alien developers. It's been held for ransom. Now the universe's most famous Tryflings-Bertram Ludlow and Rozz Mercer-have returned to clean up the mess. And what a mess it is. Family is acting strange. An alien corporation is running the place. And corporate outreach has an unusually hungry vibe. Of course, even alien overlords need quality staff, so Bertram and Rozz boldly dive into the belly of the beast. As corporate spies, they must navigate a dangerous trail of conspiracy theorists, assassins, energy beverages and boy bands-all while battling the darkest force of all: day jobs. Can the Tryfling defenders save Life As We Know It, or have Bertram and Rozz bitten off more than they can chew? Don't miss this exciting conclusion to the There Goes the Galaxy trilogy
"Thorson has a brilliant idea in mixing the world of Alice with a murder mystery. The result is a demented but internally consistent detective story... Although tackling a pastiche of a well-loved children's book is a daunting task, Thorson succeeds beautifully. She deftly captures Carroll's absurdity, wordplay, and unsettling strangeness and rings some changes of her own." -Kirkus Reviews Things that start with the letter M: murder... motives... Mary Ann...

Mary Ann is mightily moved to unmask his malicious machinations, but can she unearth the evidence, expose the killer and keep a cool head?

A woman banned from using magic. An errand boy with a secret past. A journey to the heart of death itself.For Praxis Fellows, greatness has always been a given. But life doesn't always go according to plan, and now she finds herself half a world away from where she started. Banned from using magic, employed by the son of a railroad baron to realize a dead man's dreams, Praxis's life has become a sort of living death.Kaedrich Mannly has never done anything of consequence. As the newest member of the household staff of Brindlewood Hall, his role is simple: stay out of sight and do as he's told. It's a far cry from the dreams of his childhood, when he and his twin would rule their imaginary kingdom in the forest, but even if he was brave enough to take on the hero's role these days, there's too much at stake for him to risk stepping out of his narrow comfort zone.When a mysterious beast attacks the local village, both Praxis and Kaedrich end up with more than they bargained for. Soon they find themselves bound together on a quest to discover the source of a growing breach between the land of the living and the dead, on a journey that will take them far beyond the walls of their quiet lives-if they have the nerve to see it through. Because as they both soon realize, saving the world isn't quite the fate that they'd dreamed it would be.

With the fate of the family company hanging in the balance, rivalries and betrayals become common ground-and now something darker is lurking, unburied from the deepest depths of the mine. How long can Praxis and Kaedrich resist being drawn into the quagmire of family politics? And just how much damage is Lanali doing to Kaedrich's own home up north while the two of them are stuck under the ice?
