The Pirates destroyed the enemy, cut off their access to the Milky Way.
Against all odds, Joe, Skippy, and the Merry Band of Pirates pulled off yet another impossible mission. They should be celebrating. Unfortunately, the dying enemy had one final act of spite. Now an unstoppable force is consuming the galaxy. Coalitions are collapsing. Chaos is spreading, including on Earth. And Joe Bishop has more problems than even he can personally deal with. So while everyone else deals with the increasingly violent chaos, Joe, Skippy, and the Pirates have to tackle the actual enemy: the laws of physics. And unfortunately, even Skippy can't argue with those. So when the fate of the galaxy comes down to one last solution, there's only one thing left to deploy. Filthy monkeys. Craig Alanson's epic Expeditionary Force saga concludes in book 20. Get ready for Last Ride, narrated as always by the one and only R.C. Bray.
