IN PURSUIT, by Breahan Pautsch, is Hobo Junction's new sci-fi comedy. A sweet couple of immigrants from another galaxy is settling into a quiet life in Wisconsin, and only an intergalactic green card stands between them and the nice normal Earth life they've always dreamed of. Just when Earth American citizenship seems within their reach...miles of red tape, a crazy out-of-town cousin hell-bent on a good time and an unexpected body threaten to derail their well-made plans.

As they struggle to keep it all together, they learn that everyone's idea of "nice" and "normal" are not the same, making it harder to find on Earth than Tribble in a field of Triffids, and that home may not be on any planet, but in the big, squishy heart of someone they love.
