About this listen
The hero of Will Save the Galaxy for Cash returns to do what he does best. Which is - what again, exactly?
With the age of heroic star pilots and galactic villains completely killed by quantum teleportation, the ex-star pilot currently named Dashford Pierce is struggling to find his identity in a changing universe.
Then, a face from his past returns and makes him an offer he can't refuse: take part in just one teeny weeny, slightly illegal, daring heist, and not only will he have the means to start the new life he craves, but also save his childhood hero from certain death.
How hard could that be? If you need to ask - you don’t know Dashford Pierce.
Before long, Pierce is surrounded by peril, and forced to partner with the very same supervillains he'd spent his heroic career thwarting. But when he's confronted by the uncomfortable truth that star pilots might not have been the force for good they had intended to be, he begins to wonder if the villains hadn't had the right idea all along....

Space travel just isn't what it used to be. With the invention of quantum teleportation, space heroes aren't needed anymore. When one particularly unlucky ex-adventurer masquerades as famous pilot and hate figure Jacques McKeown, he's sucked into an ever-deepening corporate and political intrigue. Between space pirates, adorable deadly creatures, and a missing fortune in royalties, saving the universe was never this difficult!

Story
A magical serial killer is on the loose, and gelatinous, otherworldly creatures are infesting the English countryside. Which is making life for the Ministry of Occultism difficult, because magic is supposed to be their best kept secret. After centuries in the shadows, the Ministry is forced to unmask, exposing the country's magical history - and magical citizens - to a brave new world of social media, government scrutiny, and public relations.

Story
In a world full to bursting with would-be heroes, Jim couldn't be less interested in saving the day. His fireballs fizzle. He's awfully grumpy. Plus, he's been dead for about sixty years. When a renegade necromancer wrenches him from eternal slumber and into a world gone terribly, bizarrely wrong, all Jim wants is to find a way to die properly, once and for all. On his side, he's got a few shambling corpses, an inept thief, and a powerful death wish. But he's up against tough odds....

A dance club full of bodies. Cause of death - a mystery. The lone survivor - a man, raving like a lunatic, wearing only a deerstalker hat. Now, the man who calls himself Sherman Holmes is being studied like a lab rat by a top-secret government agency. How is it he can be barely clinging to reality one minute - yet be a seeming genius the next?

Completely prying awesome!
I think this series has to be the best antidote to the pandemic ever. I really can't wait for the next book in the series. Yahtzee Crowshaw is a master of hilarious analogies, nutty science and weird and wonderful characters. in addition, his narration is quite brilliant, making all the characters come to life so vividly, I'm going to miss them all, even the bad guys. Hurry up with the next book, I'm like an addict without my poison!

Did not disappoint
I was a big fan of the first book and was looking forward to a sequel. I was not disappointed and found the ensemble of characters to be all engaging and well developed. Again Croshaw's enthusiastic delivery brought out the humor and quirks of the characters.

Well done
The first sequel to come from a Yahtzee Crowshaw book and it does not disappoint. The universe is expanded (quite literally) organically and the new story fits well with the first.

Great sequel to Will Save The Galaxy For Food!
Voice acting is superb as always. I wasn't sure how a sequel was going to go after the first book, but the writing here is even better and events took me by surprise several times. Definitely worth a listen!

Best Author to Narrate his own book
Nobody can convey the expression and emotion intended by literature as well as the author who wrote it. Most authors who narrate their own books I have found to lacking at narration but Yahtzee does such an incredible job with his books. The sarcasm and expression of his narration perfectly matches the book. I doubt anyone could do any better at narrating one of his novels. Yet another comical adventure story by Yahtzee that will keep you entertained throughout the story.

Doesn’t pretend to be serious science fiction—humanity has progressed BEYOND interstellar spaceship travel, but somehow everybody still uses 2020-era smartphones, desktop computers, and inkjet printers! Quite witty and funny though.

I actually laughed
as a fan of sci fi I love a satisfying satire of the genre. not only does it do a good job of skewering the tropes it provides characters that are relatable and likeable, with a plot you can keep listening to.

jacques mckeown's at it agian! the new characters are fantastically written, the world building is great. Mckeown's cynicism portrayed by Yahtzee never ceases to amuse and im looking forward to his next adventure, or mishap, depending on your definition.
