Book description
Okay, buckle up, because this audiobook is pure, unadulterated joy. Larry Correia's Tom Stranger stories? They're basically the superhero movie you wish you had as a kid, but with way more weirdness and zero capes. And Adam Baldwin? Oh my gosh, he's perfect as Tom. You can hear the exasperation when Jimmy the Intern is causing chaos (like trying to sell doughnuts during a multiverse crisis in "Doughnut Run" - seriously, chaos and missing glaze? Genius), and the sheer cool when Tom's just... solving problems with a pocket protector and a Combat Wombat. (Yes, a Combat Wombat. Don't ask.)
This collection? It's basically the full Tom Stranger experience: two classic adventures where he's fighting tentacle monsters and his arch-nemesis Jeff Conundrum while trying to keep his insurance agency's rating, plus three brand-new, hilarious stories. "Apocalypse Cow" alone? The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse walk into a Waffle House, and Tom and Jimmy walk out? With the fate of multiple civilizations hanging in the balance because Jimmy skipped his breakfast? I laughed out loud. And "A Murder of Manatees"? Wendell the Manatee gets kidnapped, Tom's got his battle mechs, Jimmy's trying to be useful... and you know the manatee's gonna be fine, but the way it's told? Chef's kiss.
What makes this so great as an audiobook? It's all in Adam Baldwin's voice. He nails Tom's dry, "I'm just here to do my job" vibe, Jimmy's chaotic energy is so relatable (and hilarious), and the sheer absurdity of "evil dolphin kidnappers" or "misplacing your favorite bowtie" becomes even funnier when you hear it delivered with perfect timing. You don't just read Tom's world; you hear it, feel the chaos, and genuinely want to see Jimmy finally get his act together (maybe with a doughnut in hand).
It's not just sci-fi or fantasy; it's funny sci-fi and fantasy. It's the antidote to all the grimdark stuff out there. You'll be grinning through the multiverse rifts, the waffle house showdowns, and the desperate search for a missing manatee. Larry Correia writes like he's having the time of his life, and Adam Baldwin's narration makes it feel like you're getting the inside scoop from the coolest, most customer-service-obsessed interdimensional agent ever. Seriously, if you've got a few hours to kill and need a laugh that actually lands, this audiobook is your new best friend. You'll be quoting "Civilizations across the multiverse threaten to collapse" to your friends before you even finish the first story. Trust me, you're missing out if you haven't heard it yet. Go listen - your inner chaos gremlin will thank you.
