Peculiar Adventures in Outer Space

A science fiction bundle consisting of Applesauce and Moonbeams and Nothing Personal.

APPLESAUCE AND MOONBEAMS:

A Telepathic Hitman has Stolen His Body!

After a hit man blasts telepathic psychiatrist David Lumen’s mind into the body of a pampered kitty on its way home to the moon, David’s desperate plan to make himself whole again is hampered by his new feline life. The only person close enough to communicate with is struggling avant-garde artist, Pippin Applegate.

Pippin has problems of her own. The Fashion Police ticket her unmercifully for appearing disheveled in public, even though her accidents are never quite her fault. Her aunt is pressuring her to quit art and become VP of the family’s Lunar apple business. And now Pippin has to deal with a telepathic cat?

NOTHING PERSONAL:

Kidnapped to the far side of galactic nowhere!

One day Tam is waitressing at a neighborhood tavern and taking community college classes in firefighting. The next… Well, months later when she finally gets her sight and hearing back, after waking up in a hospital… She’s living on a county-sized space station, one of the few humans in a community made up of giant, sapient lizards and birds.

Her next-door neighbor is a MUTANT giant, sapient lizard. Her new Station Safeties supervisor doesn’t think a mere mammal can handle the job. And her boyfriend wants her to help with illegal drug running.

What’s a girl to do? Except keep her new eyes and ears open to find the bastard who stranded her here and knows the way home…
