The Voyages of Ralf, Vol. 1

Banned on Mars A space opera comedy with satiric tone, The Voyages of Ralf owes as much to Douglas Adams as Philip K. Dick.

Reader's Favorite awarded the novel a 5-Star Seal review, calling it "an action-packed adventure with plenty of laughs along the way".

From the back cover:

"A great, subversive book " - Terran Viewpoint

"Load of malarkey." - New West York Times

"I prefer the sound of riveting during a morning lie-in" - Cosmic Spectator

In the year 1969 SR (Since Reset), Mars leads a flourishing tri-galactic alliance. Space Corps Intern Ralf has had a brain-load full of the Academy and now, as he starts his second internship, he has already completed one top secret mission, suffered a great personal loss, and dealt with Zin pirates.

In a world where Ugly is a swear word, and the Equal Sign (=) is the primary religious icon of the status quo, Ralf is on a far-ranging adventure and quest for the truth, even if it upends Martians' long-held beliefs about themselves.
