What to read after Rick Emmerson Space Pirate?

On the pirate ship The Twenty-Wun Stars the shoulder that is tapped when you are in need is Rick Emmerson. Second only in charm to the captain, Mr. Emmerson is the go to person when you need something beyond your means. Be it a bottle of spiced rum banned on 12 worlds or a new starship power core, he knows where one is he can get you cheap, free or in trade. The deal always seems too good to be true. There is always this random stuff lying about under his keep until it is not, and he may not have a coin in his pocket but he can get you the world.  Throughout this series, Mister Emmerson was the deal making, gift giving, angle working, acquisition procuring, money scrounging,  “I thought we needed one of these, so I picked one up”, guy.

This is his tale. Who is Mister Emmerson? What makes him tick and why would the devil think twice before striking a deal with him. This is the backstory of Rick Emmerson, pirate.

As the deep sea once gave rise to pirates, so also did deep space . The crew of  The Twenty-Wun Stars is one such group of opportunistic souls. This exceptional group of serendipitous scoundrels find themselves under the leadership of Captain Jake Wade. The swaggering mojo at which this man moves thru life is literally infectious. The Captain and the crew travel the galaxy, always on the lookout for their next big score, with pirate booty for all, and to keep the rum taps flowing in the mess hall.
