Chaotic Orbits marks a tonal shift for Beth Revis, trading the darker themes of her earlier work for a lighter, funnier take on space adventure. The series begins with Full Speed to a Crash Landing (2024), where the main character finds herself stranded on a barely functional spaceship with a crew of misfits and has to think fast to stay alive.

The follow-up books, How to Steal a Galaxy and Last Chance to Save the World, keep escalating the chaos. Each installment throws more obstacles and odder companions into the mix, leaning into comedic timing while still delivering genuine action sequences and sci-fi worldbuilding. Readers who enjoyed the space setting of Across the Universe but want something less intense will find this series a good fit.
