I love Hank thanks for writing this

it's fun that the stories moving forward but did make me sad at some points

Great new direction

Always great to hear hard luck hank. There were a couple goofs the writer made in the story line from past books.

My favorite Hard Luck Hank book so far.

I don't want to leave spoilers but this much better than the prior two books. There is a definite change in the story and the universe . But despite the significant changes, I did not notice any inconsistencies, It's still Hard Luck Hank with all the most important companion characters even though things are different. My favorite Hard Luck Hank book so far.

Yes!

There is nothing better than Hard Luck Hank. My favorite book is almost always the most recent Hank book

It’s a very dramatic shift but I’m hopeful for the future

Hard luck hank has always been a specific kind of story. When recommending it to my friends I always describe the story as how in a place filled with the worst criminals, it’s the lamest and most forgettable person ever that has had the most influence on galactic history and every big event revolves around hank simply because he has the worst luck. This is decidedly a different story. Hard luck hank still has hard luck, but this book moves away from the feeling of the others almost entirely. My one and only critique on this story is not however that this book is not in alignment with the others or even that it doesn’t feel realistic compared to the other books, because that simply isn’t true. All in all this story in my opinion, both as a reader and an amateur writer is that, it is still hard luck hank. The different revelations, character actions and pieces of the story made perfect sense with the previous books. My one critique is merely that the reader experience feels a little dulled by the fact that the entire universe except for hank is gone and the weight of that event doesn’t feel properly addressed somehow. Perhaps though this is because we are looking through Hank’s point of view, and hank is a character who has trouble comprehending things of far less magnitude than universal destruction. I feel that this is a new story for hank, the opening of another chapter in his long life, and I for one am very excited to see what happens!

Hank is back, and its great again

"His name was Frank" , "was your skinny mother's name Lank", "Bondage friendly sister named Spank" , "your brother the sailor named Plank" , "and the less successful sailor brother named Sank", "your former alcoholic farther named Drank"? …..LMAO "Are you Fart luck Fank?" , " I heard you died untastefully" ….LOL What more needs to be said?

Everything you want from a Hank book.

fat lazy guy gets shot, stuff happens.
then some bad things do stuff and it get weird.
good book. ten stars.

This lead up...

I cannot wait to hear the next book. The anticipation is going to kill me

Great News! Same old Hank!

I couldn't wait for this book to be released. It was worth the wait. I just am sad I now have to wait again 😉😢🇺🇲

just hank....

I have really loved the hard luck hank books. The narration is just excellent and fits the narrative perfectly. The book takes a pretty big left turn, but we still have the same old hank doing pretty much the same old stuff. If you like the previous books, you will definitely enjoy this one!
