Publisher's Synopsis
Thomas has a boring job, a boring life, and he just got dumped by his girlfriend.
When the opportunity to be the caretaker for a robotic research ship bound for the South Pacific offers, Thomas jumps at the chance to change everything. Guided by the ship's always-helpful computer, Archie, Thomas bumbles and stumbles his way from island to island trying to be helpful to the people he meets. But when they arrive at the mating grounds of the giant squid, Thomas struggles to help Archie collect data and even to escape with his skin intact. On the Mating Habits of the Giant Squid is a humorous tale of adventure, growing up when you're already a grownup, and finding friendship and love in unlikely places.
