Out of Tune

Beschreibung

In an era of space travel and regular alien contact, Earthling Linda Pumpernickel has just celebrated her sixty-fifth birthday. Bumbling through her routines and losing herself in exceedingly odd daydreams, Linda wonders if there's more to life after retirement . . . when an alien called a larvalux crashes through her door and tells Linda her old pitch pipe is the secret to saving the universe from going out of tune and causing a cosmic climate catastrophe. Bizarre aliens, peculiar planets, and intergalactic corporate greed await Linda on a journey through space, time, and late-stage capitalism. Perfect for fans of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, D.C. Greschner's debut novel effortlessly blends quirky humour, innovative sci-fi, and thought-provoking environmental satire into a thoroughly entertaining adventure.
