About Raid On Porkopolis by Angus MacBrain:
Gregor Maclean isn’t your average young troublemaker… he’s got a gift for making things go spectacularly wrong…
His latest stunt, totalling a Porknado Galactic franchise, lands him in hot water. After his atmospheric flyer crashes into the fast food chain’s front window, Gregor finds himself facing a year of labor at Porkopolis, a planetary wide meat-processing nightmare, run by the infamous Porknado Corporation. With a malfunctioning flyer, an ancient public defender AI, and a court case so ridiculous it could be a comedy show, Gregor has no idea how he’s going to survive. But he’s not about to go down without a fight…
From getting lost in bureaucratic hell to dealing with mysterious figures who may or may not be his allies, Gregor’s about to learn that when you’re up against corporate overlords, it takes more than a broken-down flyer to escape. Will he survive Porkopolis, or will he be ground into galactic sausage? One thing’s for sure… Gregor’s never been one to follow the rules.

Author Bio:
Part-time Highland Games competitor, full-time sci-fi author, Angus MacBrain (and yes, it is MacBrain, not MacBrian) is a man of many talents—and more than a few questionable ideas involving bagpipes in zero gravity. Standing at a height that would make most aliens think twice about an invasion, Angus combines his love of science fiction with the heart and humor of the Scottish Highlands.
Known for his fiery red beard, which is often mistaken for a weapon of mass distraction, Angus writes tales of futuristic cosmic feuds, space battles, and corporate insanity, all from the windswept solitude of a remote Scottish island. There, surrounded by wild seas, sheep with dubious loyalties, and a temperamental generator, Angus claims the isolation is perfect for “thinking big thoughts and hiding from the taxman.”
When he’s not crafting interstellar epics, you can find him hauling firewood, experimenting with recipes for deep-space haggis, or shouting at passing seals for interrupting his creative process. Despite the challenges of island life, Angus insists he wouldn’t trade it for anything—except maybe a functional teleportation device.
