“The Ape-oid was remarkably fast, but mostly he had longer arms than I was used to. He managed to knock the stinger out of my hand just as it cleared the holster. I think he was just as surprised when he realized that I had longer legs as my foot lashed out and hit him in his hairy chest, knocking him onto his back. I reached into my hidden holster and pulled my antique projectile weapon.” Rust Bucket is the first in the Rust Bucket Universe Series by Atk. Butterfly. Others in the series include Attack Butterfly , Dust Bunny , and Paravoid . Boson Books also offers Space Rescue One by the same author. Enjoy them all.

On board Space Rescue One are two dedicated teams willing to put their lives on the line to save the lives of others.However, Rescue Team One has a problem; Richard Saber, whose anti-social behavior and drinking threatens to disrupt the team and possibly put their lives needlessly at risk. Treating Richard as another victim crying to be saved, his team buddies pull together to break through his walls of isolation in discovering the reason while the universe around them disintegrates into civil war when the colonies on Mars and Venus declare their independence.There's seems to be no possible way for three ships to rescue so many, but unknown to everyone Richard holds the key to ending the war. Even so, disaster still strikes out at the team in a form that will etch itself into space history!
