When the Galactic Registry of Ongoing Existence discovers that Earth has never once filed its paperwork, village pothole inspector Neville Bramble becomes the only document standing between his planet and the archive. Armed with eleven years of pothole measurements and a chirpy electronic guidebook that is wrong in precise ways, he takes on the beige machinery of the cosmos.
