A What Should I Read Next guest favorite! (Listen to Episode 100 for all the juicy details.) From the publisher: "A blazingly inventive near-future thriller from the best-selling, Hugo Award-winning John Scalzi." Kirkus says with "plenty of action, great character development, vivid and believable world-building and a thought-provoking examination of disability culture and politics [it]is definitely worth the ride."

Brigid says: This sci-fi action book is so much fun! Jamie is a food delivery driver during COVID-19 who gets the unique opportunity to work for a highly secret company in a location far away with some VERY large creatures. Pacific Rim meets Jurassic Park in this energetic audiobook narrated by fan favorite, Wil Wheaton. Whispersync narration available. Very entertaining and humorous, this Audible original is like listening to a summer movie blockbuster.

In this wild, wacky, and decidedly lighthearted genre send-up, substitute teacher Charlie is surprised when his distant Uncle Jake dies and not only leaves Jake a large inheritance from his billion-dollar fortune, but also wants him to take over his business—as a supervillain. Soon, with the help of his cat Hera (who turns out to be a highly competent spy and typist), Charlie sets off for Jake’s volcano lair to meet with the members of the Lombardy Collection, the members-only group of villains who quietly rule the world and press Charlie to join them if he wants to live. This past-faced, joke-packed caper is both smart and silly, just right for those seeking a literary escape. Readers are gonna love the spy cats, but the sweary unionizing dolphins were my favorite.
