Catgirls from Outer Space - Paperback

A down on his luck spaceship captain? An ex-space pirate catgirl? A catgirl warrior who's down for some wild ... adventure? This tale's about to get purrilous.

Captain Nathan Kade just wants a quick job to keep his busted-up spaceship limping through the Solar System.

Instead he gets Vessani S'Kaari, a mysterious and beautiful catgirl who tried-and failed-to steal a ship belonging to a band of space pirates. She's chaos in a tight catsuit, but she also has a lead on what may be the greatest treasure trove of lost technology the Solar System has ever seen.

He pulls her tail out of the fire, and together they assemble a team to seek out this long-lost bounty. Soon, he's commanding a ragtag crew of space cowboys:

• A warrior catgirl who's as deadly with a wink as her blade
• A snarky multi-bodied robot commando pilot
• An engineer who knows how to make a reactor purr
• And a grumpy, cyber-implanted cleric who whispers with the remnants of ancient gods

They'll dodge spaceship fire and maybe-just maybe-make the score of a lifetime.

But they're not the only ones chasing the prize. The Jovian Everlife has dispatched a fleet of warships with one of their elite, many-bodied agents in command, and he'd like a few words with Nathan and his catgirls.

Guns will blaze. Spaceships will burn. Tails will swish.

And somewhere in all that mayhem, a broke captain might just find everything he never knew he wanted.

Embark on the adventure of a lifetime with national bestselling author Jacob Holo and Amazon bestselling author Edie Skye in this brand new science fiction standalone. If you're a fan of wild futuristic technology, wilder catgirls, and scrappy crew space opera, this just might be the story you've been waiting for.
