Space Team: Planet of the Japes audiobook – Space Team Saga, Book 7

Journey into the bizarre with Space Team: Planet of the Japes. Barry J. Hutchison takes us on another whirlwind adventure with Cal and his eclectic team as they face a unique challenge – the enigma of Funworld and its clownbot inhabitants. Get ready for a fusion of hilarity, suspense, and otherworldly oddities, masterfully narrated by the ever-impressive Phil Thron. This isn’t just another space saga; it’s a rollicking cosmic comedy!

I’ve always been a sucker for adventurous space odysseys. I mean, who doesn’t like a good space romp, especially with a team as quirky as the Space Team? Imagine my delight when I plugged in my headphones, laid back, and let Phil Thron’s voice transport me into Barry J. Hutchison’s Space Team: Planet of the Japes.

Right from the get-go, I could sense that this wasn’t just another mission for Cal and his squad of cosmic misfits. The cyber-attacker plot was intriguing, reminding me of some of my favorite cyberpunk tales. But what truly made this audiobook stand out for me was the unpredictable twist – I mean, Funworld? Clownbots? It’s not every day you stumble upon such a brilliantly bizarre concoction.

Now, I’ve ridden the roller coaster of Cal’s escapades from the very beginning. From Space Team: The Guns of Nana Joan to Return of the Dead Guy, there’s been a consistent evolution in the storyline. Yet, Planet of the Japes is undeniably Hutchison at his imaginative best. This is not just another planet. It’s an eccentric theme park that adds a humorous twist to the usual interstellar affairs.

Phil Thron, the narrator, deserves special mention. He has a unique way of making each character come alive, adding layers of emotion and personality to them. His voice modulation was on point, especially when switching between the light-hearted clownbot interactions and the more intense action sequences.

To sum it up, Space Team: Planet of the Japes is a delightful mix of humor, adventure, and oddities that only a mind like Hutchison’s could concoct. Whether you’re a die-hard fan of the series or a newcomer looking for a zany space adventure, this one’s sure to tickle your funny bone and leave you yearning for more.
