Publisher's summary

This year, Krample will thwart Galactic Claus.

Krample is the self-proclaimed evil CEO of Krample Co, a well-renowned toy company in the Jolian system. Each year, Krample sets out on a quest to thwart Galactic Claus and become the official toy provider for Galaxmas. With an increasingly disgruntled board of directors, Krample must take drastic measures to secure the future of his company and defeat Galactic Claus once and for all.

Join Krample, his trusted advisor and cookie-baking expert, a hot Kolithian secretary, and a pepperoni/AI framework expert as they set out on a not-so-epic Galaxmas quest.

This charming, holiday-themed short story is filled with lots of blasters, comedic mischief, ridiculous characters, unfortunate corporate branding, and a surprising revelation.

Krample Co: A Galaxmas Story first appeared in last year's best-selling Pew! Pew! Science Fiction Anthology and is now available as a stand-alone story.

Think Douglas adams or jay and silent bob make a Christmas story

This was great. I laughed my ass of listening to this. Chucks Cheddars pizza place 🤣 the song and dance routine. The whole zany thing is basically evil krample co wants to be the providers of galaxmas presents for the universe but to do that they have to discredit the current galaxmas claus. And of course there is a great and evil plot hidden underneath it all that none suspect. Weird and whacks characters a very well narrated and well written escape from reality. Enjoy it. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Good humorous light hearted Science Fiction

Drew Cordell had my money with this one when I read the description. A toy company wants to bring down galactic Santa? It was so appealing. The narrator did a great job of sucking you into the story, the characters were interesting as well, but I honestly feel the story could have had a bit more length. The only complaint I have about the story, other than length, is that it could have benefited greatly from some more action scenes. I understand a feel good ending is what you were going for, but I'd expect an evil toy manufacturer to be a little more violent.

Funny naughty Christmas story.

Krample wants to take over Christmas and the best way to do that is to make Santa fail. The books goes through some of the tricks that Krample and his team have pulled. Nice read or listen. Narrator is funny and does a good job keeping you interested. Definitely recommend this if you have 2 hours. (I listened while prepping dinner.

Time changes all.

Acute Christmas tale,but in stade of santa it Krampas. He loved making toys until that one day everything changed! Narrator was good!

Cute Galactic Christmas Tale

A delightful and quick listen. It is a galactic Christmas tale featuring intergalactic toy corporations vying for the chance to be Galactic Claus and deliver presents to the people living in different systems throughout the universe. The book has a campy and cute feel to it. Loved it. It reminds me of Douglas Adams “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.”

Encouraging to us budding writer's out here.

This simple twist of Christmas in space is sure to be some child's all time favorite.

A great story that I will listen to again

This was a funny story about corporate takeovers and espionage. Mr. Krample, who owns Krample Company, has been trying to gain a contract that has been held by another company for years. Having been unable to secure a winning bid, Krample decides to take a different approach. He sabotages all of his own company's products in a way that frames the Galaxmas Company and, he hopes, will force Galaxmas' loss of the contract to deliver the yearly presents, which Krample Co. can then jump in and fulfill.

But, when Krample proposes his plan to his board - having already put things in motion because he knew his board wouldn't like the idea - he gets much greater pushback than even he expected, including an attack on his life. Will Krample continue with the plan? Will it be successful? And can I please get a video made of the Chunky Cheddar party song and dance? LOL

This was such a fun listen and will likely become a story I listen to multiple times for the comedy and the ending. And, seriously, if someone could get a video made of that promotional song and dance, I would love that!
