From 'A giant of twentieth-century science fiction' (Guardian), the adventures
of Pirx, a hapless everyman in outer space
'By now he fancied himself something of a rocket jockey, a space ace, whose real
home was among the planets'
In a future where space travel has become routine and unremarkable, Pirx the
pilot bumbles and daydreams his way through the solar system. These endearing
tales follow his progress from cadet to captain. But, whether he is wrestling
with a misbehaving spacesuit, feeling uncomfortable on a luxury space cruise
ship or encountering a mysterious malfunctioning robot on a mission to Mars, the
hapless Pirx just can't stop things from going terribly wrong.
Translated by Louis Iribarne
