Paperback Book: Throughout his childhood Daxton’s parents threw money at him and told him, “Go have some fun.” Carpe mortem! he grew up a pampered orphan! College is abominable, except for his friends. Escaping into the alternate reality of computer games gives him the illusion of control, but reality stinks. He’s a prisoner in a golden cage. An imprudent trip with a friend to a restaurant outside their safe compound, and an SATV interview with the head of the Terra Colony Project, spark an idea, a new possibility. A rover attack exposes the frightening truth of the world outside the compound. Three of the five colony ships have already launched. Endeavor leaves in a month—too soon. This has to be perfect. The EsCargo is the last ship. Will his friends be willing to stowaway, for a one-way trip across the galaxy?
