Leo Finch was forty minutes late with a pepperoni when a burning warship landed on his van. Out of the wreck climbed an alien princess and a ship that talks, and both of them called him Captain Finch, leader of the human resistance. Leo has never led anything. He owes money to three people, a dog on his route genuinely hates him, and his van is now on fire in two places. Twelve enemy battleships are in orbit with their guns trained on what is left of a Vauxhall Combo. Leo, trying very hard to explain that there has been an enormous mistake, has just transmitted an unconditional demand for their immediate surrender through a pizza ordering app. They have accepted the challenge. The galaxy needed a hero. It got a delivery driver with one star and a cracked phone.
