History Literature / VoidDogs

* CoolStarship: The ''Rebellion'' (but only in a CoolLoser kind of way)

* AnythingThatMoves: Galatea. And several things that don't move. And anyone or anything she hasn't been explicitly told not to.

* FutureImperfect: One chapter includes references to Creator/MichelangeloBuonarroti's ''Art/{{David}}'' {{sculpture|s}} and Creator/EdvardMunch's famous Art/{{The Scream|Munch}} poster.
** Not to mention Regan's favorite author, the great Irish writer MacTwain!

* FutureImperfect: One chapter includes references to David's statue of Michaelangelo and Edvard Munch's famous poster.

* SpaceIsAnOcean: Completely averted. A ship that loses engine power has to shunt back to sub-light speed or risk destruction, but will continue to move in the same speed and direction. Quite a lot of SpaceDoesNotWorkThatWay is avoided, actually.

* {{Badass}}: Cicada, Shays' hulking cybernetic bodyguard/enforcer/possible girlfriend.

* {{Expy}}: Handy is essentially one of [[Creator/LoisMcMasterBujold Lois McMaster Bujold's]] [[VorkosiganSaga quaddies]] with her ComicallySerious knob turned up to 11.

[[http://www.void-dogs.com/ ''Void Dogs'']] is a {{fantasy}} SpaceOpera by AlexandraErin, better known for the adult fantasy series ''TalesOfMU''. This lighter, more comedic story follows the misadventures of the crew of the ''Shays Rebellion'', a deep space cargo ship owned by a shady businessman and manned by nameless {{RedShirt}}s and a crew of "lovable" rogues, including:

* AnythingThatMoves: Galatea. As well as several things that don't move and anyone or anything she hasn't been explicitly told not to.

* AnvilOnHead: When the ship is boarded, Handy drops various items including a bowling ball and an anchor out of the air ducts onto the intruders. The incongruity of keeping things like a bowling ball or an anchor in the duct system is noted.
* AnythingThatMoves: Galatea. And also several things that don't move, for that matter. And pretty much anything she hasn't been explicitly told not to.

* TheCaptain: Not present among this crew of sociopaths
* CoolStarship: The ''Rebellion''.

* OrphanedEtymology: Lampshaded repeatedly, including a self deprecating reference to an "early 21st century writer" who was notorious for lampshading OrphanedEtymology.

* AnythingThatMoves: Galatea

* DirtyCoward: Daniel Shays. Is willing to throw non-essential personnel to a pursuing necromancer in order to make sure he gets away. Lilliana is a more pragmatic version of this.

* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Regan, full stop. Most of the time, she barely sees competent. When the fighting starts, it's a different story. It helps that she's also TheBerserker.

* AuthorFilibuster: In a couple places, the action halts while the narration or a character explains something that bugs the author about science fiction. It's played for laughs, but YourMileageMayVary.
