Science fiction author Alex R. White stops by to talk about his new space opera trilogy, The Salvagers. The first book, "A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe", is a rowdy, raucous adventure with numerous twists, and the second book, "A Bad Deal for the Whole Galaxy", jumps back into the action without missing a beat. The third book, "The Worst of All Possible Worlds", is set to be released in Summer 2019.

Alex talks about the inspirations for his settings and characters, from racing to noir mysteries and something that was very different from "Game of Thrones", and what went into composing a soundtrack for "A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe".
