Boltguns and Duct Tape

One busted starship. One small-town mechanic. One wild ride into the galaxy. Rix Banner thought his fighting days ended with World War II. Back home in Cranberry Cove, he just wants to fix cars, drink coffee, and put the past behind him. But when a broken-down starship crash-lands in a Wisconsin cornfield, Rix discovers the universe isn’t done with him yet. The Galactic Empire doesn’t care about Earth’s isolation. They want their ship back—and the fugitive who stole it. Rix isn’t a soldier anymore, but he’s the only one standing between his town and an alien war. With nothing more than wrenches, welding torches, and a stubborn streak, he’ll have to patch together a ship—and a plan—before everything he loves is stripped for parts. Fans of retro science fiction, found-family crews, and grease-stained heroes will love Boltguns and Duct Tape—a fast-paced adventure where the galaxy’s fate depends on one small-town mechanic who refuses to quit.
