About this listen

For years, the ancient alien AI known as Skippy (the Magnificent, don’t forget that part) has been able to do one impossible thing after another. What is his secret? It’s simple: 100 percent Grade-A extreme awesomeness. And also because he had never been faced with an opponent of equal power. Until now.

This time, he might need a little help from a band of filthy monkeys.

Good but not the best in the series.

Like rest of the books in this series it's pretty solid and R.C. Bray is once funny and awesome in his narration. The story do suffer a bit from being the second last book in the series. Sometimes it just feels like it slogs on and on and on. While at other time so much happens at once that it feels almost overwhelming. As mister Alanson is rushing to tie up all the loss ends and set the stage for the final show down in Book 15. (Which I am SOOOOO Looking forward to!)

You Filthy Monkeys Will Love It

Hidee-Ho there monkeys. Let's be honest you've listened to at least 13 other books in the series now (make sure you listen to the maverick series if you haven't ). That means you don't need me to tell you to listen. Otherwise you're just indulging in masochism now if you don't enjoy the series. The final book is out soon and we have no idea how it will finish, except that a filthy monkey and a beer can will be a part of our lives forever!

brilliant

I very nearly sent Mr Alanson a strongly worded email but luckily the last half an hour cleared it up. I didn't trust the awesomeness. best in the series so far.

Superb story and of course narration

You have to believe in the AWESOMENESS !!

Bobby Ewing would be proud of this backtracking.

If you've got this far you'll be not surprised by the format or the at times the one sided battles that can now occur, now the monkies are so powerful. Most species have lost any character depth bar the beetles, who are admittedly quite interesting. Desperate situations do occur however, but unusually even the reader is kept in the dark this time, with a retrace of the storyline in a Bobby Ewing shower scene rehashing moment Things are getting close to the end now and unless the author can move the main characters (including a hampster, lisard, bettle and kitty), To the surface of a remote ringworld say . Te next book it will all be the last, which will be a shame as the new series promoted at the end just isn't my thing. ie wisards in a dog ☹️

Disappointing end.

After spending so much time listening to this series of books I must say I was extremely disappointed with the end.
Feels like he rushed it to hit a deadline and if this is the actual final book all I'll say is WTAF.
