Professor Bridges and the Programmable Planet

In this irreverent, nostalgic, and light-hearted take on the typical space opera, the down-on-his-luck alcoholic Nick Bridges is abducted by aliens to save the galaxy - whether he wants to or not.
"...if you enjoyed [Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Men in Black], I believe you will enjoy this as well." Laura, Netgalley ARC Review
"Something they never tell you about being a hero - it's really just about being at the wrong place at the wrong time and living to tell the tale."
Stuck in a dead-end job as an adjunct Professor of Psychology focused on paranormal sightings and claims of alien abduction, the alcoholic Nick Bridges is divorced, disinterested and defeated.
Stumbling home from a late-night bender, Nick is himself abducted by aliens - a secret police force that keeps the galaxy from falling into chaos. They tell him that only he - out of everyone in the universe - is being called by a cybernetic armor that is key to their mission. A mission they now expect him to help complete.
Now, to get home, he has to be the hero he never envisioned himself to be and save the galaxy, and maybe even himself - as long as his demons don't derail him along the way.
Join Nick Bridges as he discovers that we aren't alone - and neither is he - in this first installment of the epic and hysterical PROFESSOR BRIDGES SAGA.
