The adventure begun in Corey Naylor – Space Janitor concludes here.
Corey Naylor has one mop, one suspicious organism and one very bad idea.
The pirates control the bridge, hold the captain and are loading the ship’s most valuable hostages into a detachable luxury module.
Unfortunately for them, Corey has just been given an official job title.
Emergency Spill Response.
Corey is still only a janitor. He has no military training. His immediate backup consists of an injured security officer, a damaged cleaning drone and an unidentified organism recovered from a diplomatic toilet.
What he does have is the service staff.
With Lieutenant Marra Vey and Chief Steward Pell, Corey turns the parts of the ship nobody important notices into a resistance network. Laundry chutes become escape routes. Heated towels become sensor ghosts. Diplomatic formalwear becomes a tactical hazard. Catering software develops strong opinions about armed intruders.
But the pirates are no longer merely stealing cargo.
They intend to cut a self-contained hostage vessel out of the Radiant Accord, take everyone they consider valuable and leave everyone else sealed inside a silenced, helpless ship.
Stopping them will require every forgotten fault, closed maintenance ticket and badly repaired service system Corey knows.
It will also require Gloop.
And possibly a mop.
Perfect for readers who enjoy warm, fast-moving comic science fiction, unlikely heroes, workplace absurdity, practical problem-solving and high-stakes adventures powered by very ordinary equipment.
The pirates prepared for security officers, command codes and organised resistance.
They did not prepare for service disruption with objectives
Genre: Science Fiction
