Agent to the Stars

Description

From New York Times bestseller and Hugo Award-winner John Scalzi, Agent to the Stars is a brilliantly witty first-contact story unlike any other.

Showbiz is about to go interstellar

As an ambitious young agent, Thomas Stein knows all about the art of the deal, even if his actors arent quite A-list material. But hes about to receive some out-of-this-world clients literally. The space-faring Yherajk have come to Earth to talk interstellar peace. One problem: theyre also hideous, and smell like rotting fish.

For Stein, its a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become the hottest name in Hollywood. Or on the planet. Yet its one thing to land a clients blockbuster film role and quite another to negotiate for an entire alien race. Hell need every ounce of his charm, wit and wiles. But even with these considerable talents, can he really give the Yherajk the makeover they need to shine on the worlds stage?
