Losers in Space

de John Barnes

**In 2129 no one has to work for a living.** But there *is* one job people would kill for: **PROFESSIONAL CELEBRITY.** **The girl:** Susan Tervaille, 16-year-old daughter of a famous actor. **The guy:** Derlock Slabilis, 16-year-old son of the most famous media lawyer on the planet. **The problem:** No children of celebrities can inherit their parents' money unless they earn the rank of professional celebrity, too. **The solution:** Stow away (with their friends) on a Mars-bound ship. The publicity will cement their fame and futures. **The *real* problem:** Derlock is a sociopath. This description comes from the publisher.
