Format: 236 pages, ebook

A species that has no word for murder, has a murderer aboard their spaceship. ALIEN Tristol lives …

"Humans were so very good at fucking, so desperate to engage in it, and yet so uncomfortable talking about it."

-G.L. Carriger, The 5th Gender (Tinkered Stars)

"Mister Montiguous was a diminutive furry creature who happened to miraculously weigh the same as a small asteroid when standing on one's chest. Tris thought dark matter might be involved."

-G.L. Carriger, The 5th Gender (Tinkered Stars)

"Elle and Olav had invited him into their bed. He’d declined, of course. Olav was hot, but Tris was not attracted to females, and it was bad form to participate in a sexual encounter with two when he was only interested in one. Everyone knew that. He thought this was likely a universal truth."

-G.L. Carriger, The 5th Gender (Tinkered Stars)

"He will tell the galoi my story. My life away from them. And they will know what I have learned of sock shopping and noodle eating and cat keeping. And they will wonder at the differences in our universe. And because of you, they will see that there can be human somates, and human love and purple penises, and they will maybe talk a little more to humans. They will maybe open up their ships to visitors. And they will maybe consult your doctors for the secrets of human fertility. And they will maybe change. Because that is what zyga is for, in the end. Possibility."
