The Earth has been sold. What could possibly go wrong?

Shortlisted for The Selfies Fiction Award 2021

Finalist in the Page Turner Awards 2021

It’s the Year 2024. Drowning in debt following the pandemic and facing ruin, the world's leaders have taken the only logical decision.

They’ve sold the planet.

When Toby, a penniless student, and his two new flatmates find out one morning on TV, they're surprised to find the Earth’s new owners are staggeringly cute and bring the promise of a debt-free future. They're just getting ready to celebrate along with the rest of the world, when a chance encounter with a mysterious professor reveals the truth. And there’s a glitch: the Earth is about to be destroyed.

Fresh, fun and fast-paced, How to Buy a Planet is the unforgettable tale of three students on an impossible quest to beat the system. If you're a fan of Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, or sci-fi hero, Doctor Who, this is the must-read sci-fi novel of 2021.

WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING ABOUT HOW TO BUY A PLANET:

"Builds a palpable sense of cinematic tension… will captivate readers with its ingenuity and timeliness.” BookLife Prize Critic’s report, June 2021

"What a timely read... Totally mesmerising." Oxford Daily Information review

"Echoes of Douglas Adams... Lots of fun." Tim Harford, The Undercover Economist

"Entertaining and fast-moving science fiction adventure… Written with a sense of humour, fun, and wonder." Una McCormack, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
