Publisher's summary

"Like crack for my eyeballs!" (Amazon reviewer)

While trying to stop a cyber-attacker stealing all Space Team's hard-earned money, the cyborg, Mech, unlocks a secret partition in his hard drive, revealing a mysterious set of coordinates.

The co-ordinates lead the team to Funworld, a planet-sized theme park with a worrying number of artificially intelligent clownbots, and a shocking disregard for Health & Safety.

With no weapons, and a shapeshifter who can no longer shift-shape, Space Team's quest to unlock Funworld's mysteries leads them deep into the planet's core - and to the horrors that inhabit it - where they uncover the shocking secret Mech had no idea he was keeping.

Featuring space clowns, the second-last human alive, and at least one fleeting reference to Scooby Doo, Space Team: Planet of the Japes is the seventh hilarious book in the internationally best-selling Space Team series.

I just want more Splurt!

I love when Splurt gets involved! Warning if you don’t like clowns you may want to avoid this one.

Everything but chapter 11

I love this book but cringe at chapter 11. Makes ball my legs up in anxiety thinking about my precious boy parts! Great book though and Phil continues to do great narration!

This isn't a good book

It's a good SPACE book.

Anyway, Phil Thron delivers another amazing performance where he really brings the Space Team members to life, enhancing an already fun story. I can't wait for the next one!

Not the best story out of the series but still good!

This one was interesting - not dull by any means just not as hilarious or interestingly action packed. Despite that it was still enjoyable and leaves us with such a cliffhanger I’m rushing to get the next one! Go Space Team!

Fonkin’ Clowns

The excellence of juvenile and sarcastic wit continues... Laughed out loud and often... Whimsy of GotG, the silliness of Airplane, slapstick of Red Dwarf... Love the way the narrator brings you into the fun...

So funny

Love this series and highly recommend to anyone who loves situation comedy with a perfectly performed cast in a SPACE opera setting! What can't go wrong, rite?

not the most enjoyable of the stories

i thought this was not the most enjoyable of the stories. I felt part of the story (fun world) dragged on a bit too long. ever read a fantasy story where you think "gosh this is too much"? that's how I felt. I think just the last 40 mins of the story really got back to what makes this series fun.
as always amazed by the narrator's ability.

Love These Stories

Simple good ole fashion comic story telling. The stories are fun - you can't beat a Cal Carver Adevwnure.
