Most cosmopolitan city in the universe, and a guy can't even get a
freakin' sandwich. It should be the least of Izo's concerns. Afterall,
he's already been kidnapped by aliens and dragged halfway across the
galaxy so they can make a buck off his abilities. And sure, he knew
being able to fly made him a little unique. But he had no idea the
cult-like--yet strangely marginalized--reputation Avarians held beyond
Earth's boundaries. As he arrives on the Imperial Capital, IA, he's got
one choice: cooperate with his captors so they'll get him back home, or
split and head out on his own, taking his best shot at returning to
Earth--a planet no one's ever heard of. It isn't much of a choice. Being
extorted by a mean reptile, a tele-empathic linguist, and a giant teddy
bear who could crush a car seems as bad as it gets--until a powerful
CEO-Senator appears from deep within the IA's darkest corners. With
things changing from annoying to alarming, it's up to Izo to navigate a
dangerous game of befriend and befraud, or be trapped on the wrong side
of the universe forever--several million lightyears from the nearest
deli.
