Skeleton Crew

"A slave raised believing himself free, a criminal even before his birth. Everyone thinks Kanti is someone he isn't: a playboy reduced to working at the dump, a spiteful son trying to make amends, and perhaps even an excuse to recycle every last officer, crewman, and cub on board. However, this unlikely hero and the rest of the crew are in for a wild ride to the brink of mutiny, isolated deep in space, some 1,500 light years from home." ― quoted from this book's product page on Amazon's website as of 2019-07-09.
