Trash Crisis on Earth — Alexander Stadler

FIRST OFFICER JULIAN RODRIGUEZ has seen his share of injustices during his time on Earth, disguised as an eight-year-old boy.

BUT THIS IS THE LAST STRAW!

FIRST he's denied his preferred midday nutrition capsule (lunch), then he's faced with a day of standardized testing at his education center (school) and an ambush by girl-bullies on his way back to his home study site (home). BUT the greatest humiliation is yet to come, when Julian Rodriguez must face his archenemy -- a cruel, maniacal villainess (who just happens to bear an uncanny resemblance to his mother).

Will our hero survive this crisis and save us all from total annihilation?
