When his city council representative is hit by a bus, David Sawyer decides to run for the newly-vacated seat. One problem: He\’s a human in an alien-majority district that hasn\’t voted in a human in half a century. Can Sawyer pull it off in a race that includes a politically smooth, physically gelatinous front runner, a carnivore whose entire platform is on the right to consume pets, and two literally bile-spewing sisters? A tale of aliens, politics and humor from the author of \”Old Man\’s War\” and \”The Android\’s Dream\”.
