Summary
An increasingly crippled Hank struggles to keep the various factions of Belvaille in check after the collapse of the Colmarian Confederation.
Hank, as Supreme Kommilaire and Secretary of City, has several hundred police to try to maintain order among the millions of inhabitants on the space station while simultaneously preparing for Belvaille's first ever election.
He thinks it is an impossible task. Every year the city and even the galaxy falls further into chaos as he succumbs to the debilitating effects of his mutation.
With economic turmoil everywhere, a dirty election in the works, and the galaxy's foremost assassin hunting him, Hank has to decide if he can save Belvaille. Or if it's even worth saving.
NOTE: Sequel to Hard Luck Hank - Screw the Galaxy and Hard Luck Hank - Basketful of Crap

Another enjoyable Hank story
Fun, occasionally funny. Could listen to these stories for another 10 books, provided the author can keep them fresh-ish

Mixed bag of a story
Hank is now so big it isn't funny. He can't get off the floor or use toilets anymore. He's basically handicapped and just blunders through everything. There's a 78 year time skip from the last book so everyone from then is either old or dead. We don't even see Garm in person until about the last hour. If you like Delovoa then you're in luck because he's about the only character Hank banters with.
Belvaille isn't as interesting as it was before either. It isn't a squalid criminal underworld. It just seems to be a floating dump with Hank charging about trying to keep things together.
There are funny bits, and I did laugh out loud occasionally but this is no book 1. It's fairly slow paced throughout. Until the last hour this was going to be the last one I listened to in the series but then everything picked up dramatically and it got good again so... I don't know. Maybe book 4 can be at the back of my wishlist.
The narrator is variable. Hank and the Hank-voiced narrative are great but every other character is significantly quieter and on anything but an in-ear headphones they were inaudible without additional volume. But when you increase the volume to hear them, Hank becomes deafening.
Overall, it's not the worst book I've listened to this year but it's far from the best.
