About this listen

The aliens are here ... and they want municipal services!

Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself.

And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

It's Parks and Recreation meets the Federation of Planets in this fast and funny audio exclusive by Hugo Award winner and Audible best seller John Scalzi.

I have no prior encounter with this particular author so my expectation was a fresh canvas. Kinda guessed how everything was linked but it’s still quite funny. Narrator performance is amazing.

A fun whimsical short story that brought the odd smile and entertained for a couple of hours. John Scalzi has not failed me yet with his imagination and writing.

Very similar to In Your Dreams - Tom Holt but with less goblins and more hornets. Would recommend as a quick light listen.

Short but amusing
