The best production value from an audiobook!
Revisado: 11-16-19
I loved the first book (rated it 5 stars) and this one was even better. The narration showcase a lot more diversity in voice work--more alien dialects, etc. Also, and the biggest difference in production quality from the first (which is great), is the fact that they produced the arena scenes as a real broadcast w/ crowd noise, etc. Very fun, very energetic, and the highlight of my listening experience. The added bonus "commercials" were a nice touch and super funny/silly.
As far as the story, I believe this one was even tighter and strong than How to Pick Up Women with a Drunk Space Ninja. It was succinct yet the author still showed off his verbal fireworks (namely in his wacky character descriptions). I loved that the pace was even faster and the action scenes less formulaic. It felt very much like a professional wrestling event told as part of a larger space opera. I dug it all around. Can't wait for Book Three.

When bounty hunter Duke LaGrange and his oft-inebriated Japanese-Irish ninja companion, Ishiro’shea, entered their favorite watering hole, Cyborg Joe’s Grill N’ Go & The Why Not Saloon, they had no idea that they would soon be gobbled up by an unhinged astral anomaly and deposited on an uncharted primitive world. Few things are worse than undeveloped planets, especially those that haven’t even made it to the soufflé stage. To top it off, this particular planet comes with its own insane ruler and an Orb That Controls Everything and Must Be Respected.

Action-Adventure in Space - Really Good
Revisado: 09-16-19
I'm not a big sci-fi fan (or audiobook listener), I like it okay, but I received a promo code for this book so gave it a shot. It was a great adventure story with lots of action. I think its probably more of an action-adventure piece set in a "not super serious universe" than a straight up comedy but there are funny moments. I feel there is a real story here and he's not just jumping from joke to joke. This made it easier for me since I don't read every sci-fi that comes out.
Besides Duke, the Queen was my favorite character. I hope she appears more in the other books.
Great performance by the narrator too. I could probably have a beer with that guy.
