Karin | 9232 comments Jamie Gray is fired, ends up delivering food and then that dries up, but at that point he's given a card to get a job with the KPS_-Kaiju Protection Society on an alternate-dimension earth. However, he doesn't know where it is until he gets there since it's top secret. The flying animal is enormous, but the book blurb is extremely misleading when it calls it the universe's largest and most dangerous panda, because it's not remotely close to one. In fact, there's only one passing reference to one thing that this animal does that's similar to the panda (and a few other animals.)

The book is supposed to be funny, but falls flat. It's too crass for my liking, and I found it rather inane most of the time despite a promising start.

This is 12th twelfth and final book I've read/will be reading by Scalzi. It's been a bit of a roller coaster with four 4 star books, but none of those are in the humour category.
