A really rubbish adventure… in outer space
Harvey Drew is an ordinary eleven-year-old who dreams of great adventures in outer space. The Toxic Spew is an intergalactic waste disposal ship. The two are on a collision course for chaos!
After Harvey unwittingly responds to an alien signal, he is transported to the flight deck of The Toxic Spew by the ship’s bad-tempered computer, who promptly loses his return address. Even though none of the crew have even heard of Earth, let alone met an Earthling, Harvey becomes Captain of the stroppy, pizza-obsessed, brave (but grubby) crew, and almost immediately has to save them from poisonous pink maggots, dangerous exploding space-rubbish and a multiple spaceship pile-up on Hyperspaceway B16. Luckily, leading his rabble crew out of danger isn’t so different from captaining his football team, and it turns out Harvey is just the boy to save the day!

I really enjoyed reading this book, the toxic spew was really funny
This is an awesome book which is extremely funny! My favourite character is Harvey because he makes a great hero despite his only previous leadership experience being as captain of the football team (for two seasons)! It so enjoyable I read the whole book in two days. I recommend this book for kids aged 5 - 10 and anyone who likes hilarious super developed computers. This book deserves the deserves all the stars in the night sky.
