"simultaneously silly and astute, but also sensitive... [The Faculty is] a very entertaining insider’s account of contemporary scholarly life."

Happy launch day! @alfergus_author
Today the Grey Nomad gets shot into the world. A cozy book that follow the adventures of an (older) woman as she navigates age, zero gravity and alien politics.
A fun read!
