A runner for a shady errand—and sometimes shifty smuggling—service finds an unexpected partner in his half-human, teenage half-brother!
In the future, a decent job is hard to find, especially if you’re a hard-worn scoundrel with commitment issues. But there’s one position that’s always open—an errand runner. Jace is a lifelong solo act running miscellaneous tasks, often dangerous, and hardly legal, for the most questionable of clients. But when his thirteen-year-old half-human half brother comes to live with him, he’s got two mouths to feed and there’s only one way he knows how to put money on the table. Between evading the law, running from angry aliens, and jumping off skyscrapers, can Jace survive being a big brother? Navigating to the furthest depths of the solar system, the only thing weirder than the vastness of space is family.
You can outrun monsters, but you can’t outrun duty!
Collects Errand Boys #1–#5.
