The Audacity: Humor Scifi Novel Paperback Signed or Unsigned | Space opera | LGBTQ | Feminist

***There may be a 1-2 week delay at this time due to high demand!***

A wild ride stuffed to the cut-lines with humor, heart, and space shenanigans.

May's humdrum life gets flung into hyperdrive when she's abducted, but not all aliens are out to probe her. She's inadvertently rescued by Xan who's been orbiting Earth in a day-glo orange rocket ship, watching re-runs of "I Love Lucy".

Seizing the opportunity for a better life, May learns how to race the Audacity and pilots her way into interstellar infamy. Finally, she has a job she likes and a friend to share her winnings with--until the Goddess of Chaos screws the whole thing up, and Xan's unmentionable past makes a booty call.

If Douglas Adams got punted into a sticky orange pool of feminism and made sweet love to Futurama, you'd have something approximating The Audacity.

Fans of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy will appreciate the style, fans of Futurama will love the blend of laugh out loud humor and feels, fans of Steven Universe will enjoy that Space is Very Gay.

If you're tired of the same old cynical, militaristic sci-fi and crave characters who genuinely care about each other and an image of life in the Universe that isn't all gloom and doom, you're going to have a good time in the Audacity.

What people are saying:

"Cleverly written and thought out as well as highly imaginative. I highly recommend stepping aboard The Audacity, and make sure you're ready for a wild ride when you do!"

"I haven't literally laughed out loud at a book since Good Omens, and Laura Loup had me laughing for a solid amount of time."

"Fantastic characters, intriguing conundrums, space racing, time travel, smile-inducing friendships and so much orange."

About the Author
Laura Loup is a very serious humorologist with an extremely impressive BFA in animation that she promises to never actually use and an intense desire to eat orange. Not the fruit, the color. Though the fruit will do in a pinch. She owns a metaphysical shop in Savannah, GA with her husband and is the mildly peckish artist behind Tarot in Space.
