The Spacers' Guild needs a new president, and Hal Spacejock is determined to cast his vote... even though he's not a member. Meanwhile, Hal's latest cargo job belongs to someone else, his shiny new ship is losing money hand over fist, and doing a good favour could turn out to be the biggest mistake of his life. Join Hal and Clunk in their tenth adventure, where the only good boots are... Cold Boots Hal Spacejock novels are self-contained, with a beginning, a middle and a proper ending. They're not sequels, they don't end on a cliffhanger, and you could start or end your journey with any book in the series. Some events from earlier books are referenced in later ones, so it makes sense to read them in order, but it's not essential.
