''[[Glass]]'' is a novel in the works by "EnterTheHam", detailing the travels of the space pirate ship ''Pangaea'' and its eccentric captain, all through the eyes of the ordinary [[The Slacker|slacker]] Benji. 

Captain Isaac Lamarck III is an adventurer, a fighter, a dreamer and an exquisite chef who dreams of reaching the centre of the universe. But when he accepts a bounty on the head of a notoriously unfettered pirate named The Liar, he is drawn into a conflict that will question his ideals, his goals and his very identity. 

Samples can now be found [http://entertheham.deviantart.com/ on DeviantArt]. The story has not been updated since 2010, but what has been posted can stand as a complete story.

* [[Author Appeal]]: Quite extensive, given that the early concept was simply a 'you know what would be ''badass''? thought. As it stands, the very setting brims with all of the author's favourite sci-fi elements, there's a wealth of elaborate, idealistic speeches, the main character is an obnoxiously upper-class space pirate, and the imagery of blazing celestial bodies is emphasized throughout. 
* [[Cool Starship]]: Averted by the ''Pangaea'', which is simply a hijacked cargo vessel.
* [[Glove Slap]]: Isaac pulls one on an alien dictator to announce his duel challenge. 
* [[ISO Standard Human Spaceship]]: The ''Pangaea'' has quite a few elements of the second type.
* [[Large Ham]]: Isaac.
* [[Overly Long Name]]: Captain Isaac Saul-Sanderson Leonardo Alphonso Rodrigo Lamarck III! 
* [[The Engineer]]: Shiro.
* [[The Hero]]: Isaac.
* [[The Ishmael]]: Ben.
* [[A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far Far Away]]: Though only a glimpse of it has been shown, this is how the overall setting works.
* [[Space Opera]]: In setting, though perhaps not in scale.
* [[Space Pirates]]: The initial premise.
* [[Quintessential British Gentleman]]: The very core of Isaac's character.
** [[Gentleman Adventurer]]
** [[An Officer and a Gentleman]]
