Excerpt
"There are big rocks and there are little rocks. Important rocks and not so important rocks. We are sitting the most unlikely to be important rock in the entire galaxy but you know what? We're about to become pretty friggin' important."
"How's that?" asked a very small, very sleepy boy at his feet.
"We're sitting a rock in between the two most important rocks. Know what that makes us?"
Boy shook his head.
"Middlemen." Said Uncle William. "Middlemen."
