Mindswap : a novel
In the future, interstellar travel to alien worlds will be too expensive for most ordinary people. It certainly is for Marvin, a college student who wants to take a really good vacation. And so he signs up for what he can afford, a mindswap, in which a person's consciousness is swapped into the body of an alien life-form. But Marvin is unlucky, and finds himself in the body of an interstellar criminal, a body that he has to vacate fast. Yet that criminal consciousness has stolen Marvin's earthly body, and Marvin has to find a body on the black market. Travel from world to world with Marvin, each one crazier than the last, as he keeps finding far-from-ideal bodies in awful situations, just to stay alive
