- 'Like Douglas Adams writing on a sugar high' Publishers Weekly The greatest contest in the galaxy is back! The stakes are high, the stage is electric, the glam is on point, and yet again the fate Planet Earth depends on the players' ability to ROCK. Yes, yes, of course Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes saved the world. But what have they done for us lately? The Metagalactic Grand Prix is back. The stage is set for the 101st season of this part-gladiatorial contest, part-beauty pageant, part-concert extravaganza, and the stakes couldn't be higher. But while Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes are busy preparing for the contest (after finishing in tenth place the last time round) the fate of the Earth is once again threatened. Malevolent forces are gathering, hatching a nefarious plot to disrupt the peace and take down these upstarts. But will humanity be able to rise again? Return to the world of the hilarious Space Opera in this exhilarating new novel from New York Times bestselling author Catherynne M. Valente. 'Electric and breathless, it has the heart of Douglas Adams and the soul of David Bowie' Chuck Wendig on SPACE OPERA
