A Grift Too Far E-BOOK

Join the galaxy's most notorious con man, Rex Nihilo, and his ever-loyal, ever-exasperated robot sidekick, Sasha, in their craziest adventure yet! Marooned on a planet whose inhabitants have modeled their civilization on World War II movies, Rex and Sasha have only one hope of escape: unearth a secret cache of weapons that's been hidden somewhere on the planet. To find the weapons, they must spearhead an assault on an impregnable mountain fortress, blow up a strategically vital bridge, and bake an impressive number of cream puffs.

The war is make-believe, but Rex and Sasha's predicament is all-too-real, and to get off Yurp the duo find that they have no choice but to beat the Yurpians at their own game. With Rex's cunning schemes and Sasha's dry wit, they're prepared to turn the tide of history—over and over again.

Packed with the trademark humor and relentless fun of the Rex Nihilo series, "A GRIFT TOO FAR" is a side-splitting journey through the absurdities of war and the ingenuity of a con artist. Can Rex and Sasha pull off the ultimate grift and escape Yurp? Or will they become permanent fixtures in the planet's never-ending wartime farce?

Praise for Starship Grifters

"My favorite read this year. A hilarious space adventure. Hard book to put down." ―Hugh Howey, author of Wool

"Starship Grifters... is not just the funniest SF novel I've read in decades, it may be the funniest I've read ever.... Funnier than Harry Harrison's Bill the Galactic Hero series, and [it] may even match Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker series." - Travis Corcoran, Prometheus Award-winning author of The Powers of the Earth

"Starship Grifters is one of the funniest things I've ever experienced. It is certainly the funniest book I've read." ―N.R. LaPoint, author of Chalk

"Laugh-out loud funny. I loved every page of it. If you like sci-fi and laughter, this is the book for you!" ―Rob Blackwell, author of The Forest of Forever

"This is a funny, funny book. It is loveably absurd and ridiculously extravagant." ―Benjamin Espen

"Damn, I laughed.... This novel is funny, and should be approached only by those looking for a damn good reason to laugh." ―John Daulton

"Funny SF is tricky. Funny SF that holds up over an entire novel is a rarity. The writing in this book is sharp, tight, and clever. I laughed out loud enough to lose track of tally or occurrence. In a word, this novel is SMART." ―SFFAudio.com

"It's kind of like Foucault's Pendulum in space but without 500 pages of Italians discussing European history." ―Castalia House

"Kroese is the premier writer of humorous genre fiction in the indie sphere."
―J. Manfred Weichsel, author of Five Maidens on the Pentagram
