Funny and hard to put down.

My favorite JR so far. First read it years ago, I keep coming back. What is the point of a Fourth wall, anyway, unless you know how to break it, stomp on it, and walk away laughing. The performers are perfect for the parts. Well done, all.
Is it not truly silly that Forbes has even his most repulsive characters say ‘frig’, ‘frigging’ and ‘frigger’? This series is full of obscenity, profanity and sadism. There are even some references to pedophilia. In context, ‘frig’ and its derivations are completely anomalous in a story so replete with truly offensive language and topics. If..
Fun Sci-Fi Adventure!
Review from Space Force →
Loved this SciFi comedy adventure poking fun at all the usual sci-fi tropes including the authors previous books. Raunchy, violent, comical, space weaponry! kept me laughing all the way through! A great listen fir those who love sci-fi and irreverent comedy!

This is a great series

Too much of the same thing
Review from Space Force →
If you would remove all the jokes about penis and feces, it would reduce this book by half or even two-thirds, but it would probably make it a better story. Yes, this is a silly book, with a immature humor. The fourth wall breaks are fun, and the author even pokes fun at himself a..
Well played

I had gotten used to RC Bray doing the reading, but for this book, Jeffery Kafer was the right choice. His reading style is 1940’s private investigator, but it works for this story.
I really loved the way it went. I do feel like the back and forth is a lot sometimes.the narrative is oh k I just wish that when the male is going to talk during the female part they use the males voice. Can’t wait to start the next book.
I can be a tough pill to swallow looking at one’s personal motives. The Elephant in the Brain shows us some interesting psychological aspects of ourselves. A con being it got kind of repetitive so would have to switch books before coming back to it. This can make it hard to follow but the authors..
