Summary
The fourth collection by the author portrays the light-headedness of a mind trying to pull against gravity and time. It sets what it means to be "light longing for lightness" against what it means to "burn with all the humanity fire strips away." Hayes navigates melancholy, irreverence, and the sublime.--Publisher information.

"The galaxy's least favorite outlaws continue their journey through the cosmos, one step ahead of the very long list of people who want to rip out Zaha Sanko's bones. Maybe someday they'll figure out why everybody thinks his bones grant wishes, but for now it's just a weird fact of life. Sure enough, almost immediately after setting down on the planet Kenzarn, Sanko and pals once again find themselves locked in mortal combat with the zealous Lighthead Order. But when the group gets separated, Sanko is faced with his toughest challenge yet--an old classmate, back for revenge!"--

Summary
Zaha Sanko is the most wanted man in the universe. They say that if you claim his bones, you'll receive anything your heart desires. Having the entire galaxy trying to kill you all the time is kind of a drag when you're just fourteen years old, but Sanko has the mysterious power of darkness on his side, not to mention a talking spaceship and three horribly powerful space weirdos. Together, they've stayed one step ahead of the interstellar megacorporation Photosfere and an ancient cult that calls itself the Lighthead Order. But now, those two organizations are about to join forces to create a brand-new secret weapon!
