About this audiobook
He survived by running away. The company called it heroism and promoted him.
Wilbur Grubb has exactly one ambition and has never wavered from it: do not die. It served him well while nobody was looking. Then four separate acts of self-preservation got welded into one long unbroken line of valour, and Consolidated Frontier Holdings noticed.
Six weeks later they bolt a rota to the muster deck. Frontier Vanguard, First Class. First entry on every hazard operation for the quarter, his name printed forty-one times down the left-hand side.
Now they have found a way to sell him.
A comic space opera about cowardice, corporate storytelling, and the specific horror of being believed in. For readers of Terry Pratchett's Moving Pictures, John Scalzi's Redshirts, and Douglas Adams.
