How to Pick Up Women with a Drunk Space Ninja

The Adventures of Duke LaGrange, Book 1

De: Jay Key

Narrado por: Will Tulin

Bounty hunters. Ninjas. Anthropomorphic musk oxen from the moons of Gartosh. Welcome to the gut-busting universe of Duke LaGrange!

When bounty hunter Duke LaGrange and his oft-inebriated Japanese-Irish ninja companion, Ishiro’shea, entered their favorite watering hole, Cyborg Joe’s Grill N’ Go & The Why Not Saloon, they had no idea that they would soon be gobbled up by an unhinged astral anomaly and deposited on an uncharted primitive world. Few things are worse than undeveloped planets, especially those that haven’t even made it to the soufflé stage. To top it off, this particular planet comes with its own insane ruler and an Orb That Controls Everything and Must Be Respected. The bounty hunting duo will need to navigate a violent rebellion, flying fire-breathing panthers, and mutated swamp cannibals in order to avoid being stranded light years from the nearest well-made martini.

How to Pick Up Women with a Drunk Space Ninja is the first book in The Adventures of Duke LaGrange, a series of hilarious sci-fi adventure romps from the creative mind of Jay Key. You are sure to fall in love with Key’s menagerie of colorful characters and laugh-out-loud storytelling talents.

not really funny

Bought it on strength of the title and editors blurb which suggested that it would be a comedy; while it did have occational moments, it was juvenile humor.
Three stars. Not a bad book, but felt like an authors first offering. Catch it on sale, don't pay full price.

a rollercoaster of excitement and humor.

funny and exciting. overall a great story and a fantastic performance. cant wait to listen to the next in the series.

New Favorite Sci-Fi Series

I have a new favorite sci-fi series! This is the right parts adventure and wack-a-doo-ness. I really like the author's wordplay and colorful descriptors. The characters are always front-and-center and the story had me guessing. I mean who doesn't love anthropomorphic musk oxen and magic orbs and whiny priest aliens and ninjas.

On the narration side, it's exceptional. The publishing company did a great job finding the right voice to bring this to life.

solid offering for the genre

solid offering for the genre of goofy space adventures. a "meat and potatoes" effott with fairly predictable results. that said I did want to keep listening to find out what happened next. If you know the Damian Stockwell series this is like that, but in space.

I liked this book a lot

Really fun and exciting adventure. Got it as a free promo code. Highly engaging characters and cool, drawn out, sprawling setting. Loved the main bad guy and wanted more chapters with him.
