My Book Beginning this week is from Dumpiter by David Fletcher. I received an ARC for Dumpiter from NetGalley. I had a hard time finding it listed anywhere. Goodreads did not have it and Amazon listed it as out of print but available as a Kindle book. It is the first book in a trilogy so I hope I can get the other two. Here is the beginning:
Here is the Amazon Summary:
Renton Tenting is the protagonist of Dumpiter and the
ultimate unlikely hero - who, early into the story, is plucked from a
carefully planned life and cast into a challenging and disturbing
adventure, played out against a backdrop of space travel and distant
worlds. In the future, mankind has populated much of the universe and is
well on its way to screwing it all up. Renton is exposed to all manner
of ridiculous oddities - the inside of a giant milking machine, a cult
whose members live their lives on their hands and knees - and ultimately
Dumpiter itself. This is where the real mess is, and where there are
real problems for Renton...

Hi JC, this title and the other two in the trilogy are only available as ebooks – hence why you have had difficulties tracking down the paperback. Look forward to seeing the review of Dumpiter – email marketing@trouabdor.co.uk if you want to read the other two.

This does sound tempting! Hope you get the others....
Here's MY FRIDAY MEMES POST
I love the premise of this book, as well as your excerpt from Page 56. Even though I rarely read sci-fi, this sounds like a story I'd enjoy.
My Friday 56/Book Beginnings post is here.
