Historia
I don't know what the humans are so cranky about. Their enclosures are large, they ingest over 1,000 calories per day, and they're allowed to mate. Plus, they have me: an Autonomous Servile Unit, housed in a mobile/bipedal chassis. I do my job well: keep the humans healthy and happy.

Historia
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Living and slaving in Fill City One, you get used to the smell. We call it the Everpresent Stink. But every once in a while, on a spring day with a breeze, it clears away enough to remind us that there is something more out there. Most Fillers' wildest dreams would be just to get past the walls and live in the mainland. But my dream? It’s a little bigger. I’m going to Mars.

Historia
Dr. Sam Anderson is one of the most celebrated scientists in history. Ten years ago, he invented a device that changed the world forever. Now his life is about to be ripped apart—and his own creation may be to blame. One fateful morning, Sam discovers that his girlfriend has been murdered and that his daughter is accused of the crime. Sam believes she's innocent, but he can't prove it. There's only one thing he can do to save his daughter: confess to the crime. And so he does. But in the future, murderers aren't sent to prison. They're sent to the past.

Historia
There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.

At CERN, he analyses data generated by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator. Now, Ty believes he's found a pattern in its output.

Resumen del Editor
Sci-fi odyssey. Comedy. Love story. And of course, Nikola Tesla.
I'll let Chip, the main character, tell you more: "I found the journal at work. Well, I don't know if you'd call it work, but that's where I found it. It's the lost journal of Nikola Tesla, one of the greatest inventors and visionaries ever. Before he died in 1943, he kept a notebook filled with spectacular claims and outrageous plans. One of these plans was for an “INTERDIMENSIONAL TRANSFER APPARATUS" - that allowed someone (in this case me and my friend Pete) to travel to other versions of the infinite possibilities around us. Crazy, right? But that's just where the crazy starts."
Chip's Official Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. The events depicted in the collection of emails did not happen. I have never been in contact with a covert government group attempting to suppress knowledge of the lost journal of Nikola Tesla. I have not been threatened with death if I divulge the secrets contained inside. They did not buy me this handsome jacket (oh crap, you're listening to this - trust me, it looks great on me). They did not come to my place, and liquor me up, and offer to publish this book as a sci-fi comedy novel to throw the public off the trail of the real truth.
Or did they?
I'm kidding. Of course they didn't.
Or did they?
God, I can't keep my big mouth shut.
Reseñas de la Crítica

But since the money, fame, and women that come with wearing the cape are appealing, he decides to become the first supervillain the world has seen in more than 20 years: Apex Strike.

A beautiful, ambitious angel stands on a mountaintop, surveying the world and its little inhabitants below. He smiles because soon, the last of humanity who survived the great flood will meet its end, too. And he should know. He's going to play a big part in it. Our angel usually doesn't get to do fieldwork, and if he does well, he's certain he'll get a big promotion.

Cram 10 hormonal teens into a spaceship and blast off: that's the premise for the ill-conceived reality show Waste of Space. The kids who are cast know everything about drama - and nothing about the fact that the production is fake. Hidden in a desert warehouse, their spaceship replica is equipped with state-of-the-art special effects dreamed up by the scientists partnering with the shady cable network airing the show.

That was 11 years ago. Now, the hitman who goes only by Stark has escaped and is back in L.A. Armed with a fortune-telling coin, a black bone knife, and an infernal key, Stark is determined to destroy the magic circle.

To say eighteen-year-old Farrah Higgins—or Digit—is good at math is a laughable understatement. She’s been cracking codes since childhood, and is finally at home with “her people” at MIT in Cambridge. Her talents are so off the charts that her laptop is under surveillance by both the CIA and an ecoterrorist named Jonas Furnis. So when she thoughtlessly hacks into the Department of Defense’s database, she lands in serious hot water inside and outside the law.

If you want to get technical, I actually put it in my mouth. I chewed it up, too....I even swallowed. I know. Bad, bad, girl. Then I saw him, and believe it or not, choking on a guy's banana does not make the best first impression. I should backtrack a little here. Before I ever touched a billionaire's banana, I got my first real assignment as a business reporter.

But the force that’s sweeping the world is no pathogen. It’s just the first shock wave, unleashed by a stunning discovery - and what’s in jeopardy is not our minds but the very fabric of time itself. In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is closing in on the truth - and in a remote laboratory, neuroscientist Helena Smith is unaware that she alone holds the key to this mystery...and the tools for fighting back.

Comedic romp in the multiverse with Nicola
Rob Dircks' Where the Hell is Tesla? is a light-hearted comedic escapade with the only criticism that it's far too short. Based on the theme of the 80's films, Bill and Ted's whatever or the earlier Hope and Crosby 'on the road' films, two millennial slackers types stumble onto the missing notebook of Nicola Tesla that describes the construction of a transdimensional portal (conveniently located in a NYC hotel closet) leading to an infinity of alternate universes. As they wander about, they encounter varying situations that sometimes include variants of themselves. Their goal is to find Tesla who is being keep prisoner by an evil madman intent on destroying the alternate realities until he can rule the only remaining universe. The tale is related in a series of emails to a girlfriend.
The sci-fi elements are deeply set in the physics realm with alternate realities with all the potential paradoxes handled nicely. In some instances, the boys have near superpower abilities due to different environments. In other cases, they meet vastly more successful versions of themselves. There's a good mixture of bizarre and strange creatures and locals. As expected, their approach and responses to all the strange and unusual happenings is whimsical and offbeat, but they manage to save the day.
The narration is superb with a good range of voices. Most importantly, as a comedy, delivery is critical and comes off with the aplomb of a standup comedian delivering a live show. This is a quick listen due to the nonstop actions and laughs. Caution is advised when listening however, as the jokes are sufficient to cause uncontrolled belly laughs.

Interesting and funny
The format (as emails) was a refreshing honest perspective into the main character. He does curse a lot. It's science meets comedy.

A Wild Ride through the Multi-Verse!
Any additional comments?
There are few novels out there that can make me laugh out loud. Even fewer are those that I seem to connect to on a fairly personal level. Now, I’m not talking about some sort of emotional “oh my, this book just spoke to me, and oh the feels I have” kind of level, I’m talking about a certain level where you pretty much feel that you could actually be the character in the novel. Chip was that guy for me.
Admittedly, I listened to this in audiobook format, and I think that may have been a reason why I connected with it. I think that reading it, while still being an entertaining venture, would have lost something for me. I really felt that in those particular situations that Chip found himself in….I would have done the exact same things, or said the same things! He used humor and mis-placed cynicism to get through a lot of the conflict, and that’s pretty much me.
Narrated by the author, he was able to give Chip this cynical voice that comes across perfectly. He gets the mannerisms, the subtle nuances and awkward silences or chuckles so perfect that you really believe that he IS the characters.
Written in the form as letters, well, e-mails anyway, some letters, mostly e-mails the narrative gives you a more personal insight into these adventures with the Interdimensional Transfer Apparatus invented by Nikola Tesla and getting lost in the multi-verse trying to find him.
There are plenty of references to pop-culture to go around, and I swear, I might have heard wrong, Rob, if you read this, please chime in, but I swear in a quick passing of numerical codes that I heard at the end ID.10T, which if you blink, you miss it. Anyway, there’s even a reference to the iPod…only it’s not a music player, it’s i-Pahd, the H is silent, and I’ll let you read to understand what the i-Pahd does in whatever dimension you happen to find your self in.
Each of the characters are well rounded, and well voiced. You develop true feelings for each of them, and even have to deal with some heart wrenching moments. I don’t know if any of you have seen Quantum Leap, but I kind of got the same feeling I got from the series finale in some places before the end. If you’ve not watched that show before, GET OFF MY LAWN!!
The Bottom Line: Humorous, quirky, and filled with the 30 something buddy camaraderie that can only come from years of knowing each other this science-fiction/comedy is something there isn’t enough of in the world. Dare I compare it to something like a Douglas Adams?? Yeah…I’d say it.

Very creative, very fun story
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to “Where the Hell is Tesla.” Mr. Dircks’ use emails as a platform to tell his story is quite original and the story itself thoughtful as it is whimsical. I blazed through the book so fast that now I miss Chip and Pete and Meg and Tesla. I think you’ll thoroughly enjoy this book.

I really like this author!
This was a very good book it was hard to stop listening to it. I enjoyed his other book as well.
It kept me hooked the entire way through. The narrator (author) clearly enjoyed reading this book.
Easy to listen to. Easy to follow. For me a all around good sci-fi book!

Fun, fanciful, whirlwind.
The story was a fun, fanciful whirlwind. It was energetically read and made me laugh out loud several times. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
