Absolutely Brilliant and Hysterical!

I haven't laughed so hard to an audiobook in a LONG TIME.

Narrating with the gusto and humor of a hilarious Monty Python sketch, Hannibal Hills gives us his rendition of The Odd Job.

A dark slapstick caper that will entertain far after you finish listening.

Strangely funny!!💜

This book was something else. It’s not my usual genre but once in a while we need to step out of the box. Just be sure you know what you’re stepping in. 😂
This poor guy really gets himself in a mess and it just keeps getting worse or better depending on how you look at it.
There were moments of hilarity and one small section that seemed a bit out of place but mostly I was laughing out loud, literally.
The narration was fantastic! Hannibal Hills’ performance was stellar. He really captured all the characters and created each scene with excitement and intrigue. Well done!
This is a standalone book.
I recommend this book.
