وصف الناشر
"Tomlinson's well-plotted tale of first contact pinballs between hard science-fiction and hilarity, delivering a thrilling yarn." —Matt Forbeck, New York Times–bestselling author
The only thing as infinite and expansive as the universe is humanity's unquestionable ability to make bad decisions.
Humankind ventures further into the galaxy than ever before . . . and immediately causes an intergalactic incident. In their infinite wisdom, the crew of the exploration vessel Magellan, or as she prefers "Maggie," decides to bring the alien structure they just found back to Earth. The only problem? The aliens are awfully fond of that structure.
A planet full of bumbling, highly evolved primates has just put itself on a collision course with a far wider, and more hostile, galaxy that is stranger than anyone can possibly imagine.
"Taut, funny, and human, Gate Crashers takes us from zero to FTL in seconds flat." —Max Gladstone, coauthor of This Is How You Lose the Time War
"A well-drawn ensemble cast of scientists, soldiers, and aliens enriches this quirky first-contact tale." —Kirkus Reviews

Great story
Patrick’s humor fits somewhere along the lines of John Scalzi but more innocent and clean, or like the old author Harry Harrison from the 70’s who wrote “star smashers of the galaxy rangers” as a parody sci fi book. I am not sure why starship repo is not letting me write a review but both books are in same universe and this one should be first on list.
