Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 98
Chuck never thought too deeply about whether aliens existed - not until Jopp, an intergalactic transport pilot, drunkenly crashed on Earth and tried to steal his truck. Now Chuck finds himself unwittingly roped into helping Jopp work off a debt to the universe's most powerful corporation, the Prime Partners Intergalactic Consortium. Through a series of mishaps and misfortune, the duo find themselves in possession of a mysterious black case. In order to survive, they must fend off murderous marauders, an interplanetary police force, and a peculiar crime boss.

Excellent Book!

I have heard that this book draws connections to a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I can't speak to that as I have never read that series. Now, however, I think I will have to pick up that series.
I found this book excellent. There were references to many other science fiction franchises, including Star Trek, Star Wars and Firefly. I'm sure there were others, but I didn't notice them. That Wesley Crusher reference was great!
I fully endorse that you read this book as well!

An Excellent Collection of SF & Fantasy Stories
Revisado: 06-18-15
Alex Shvartsman is an expert at writing science fiction and fantasy. If you appreciate humour and like these genres, you will love this book. There may be the odd story that just doesn't work for you but with 40 stories in this book there is always something coming that you will love.
My favourite stories in this collection are two stories featuring something called 'The Watch' and two stories featuring a magical pawnshop, which includes the title story 'Explaining Cthulhu to Grandma'.
Tina Connolly did an excellent job reading the stories in this collection. The different inflections her voice really helped to differentiate between characters and it was always easy to follow who was speaking during the stories.
If you are still on the fence about purchasing this book, let me assure you that this book has everything. This book even has cats. And by cats, what I really mean is SPACE CATS. How amazing is that?
The time has come. Scroll your screen up to the top of this page and click on the button to buy this book. You will not be disappointed.
PS. You may think that some of the words in this review are spelled incorrectly. You and the spell checker for this website are wrong. As a Canadian I am proud to spell words like humour and favourite with a 'u' after the 'o'. If you don't like my spelling please imagine that I spelled the words the way you think they should be spelled.
