About this listen

The earth has been invaded by unfathomable terrors from another dimension and international governments are doing their best to pretend nothing is happening.

But you can’t keep an alien invasion hidden forever.

A Hollywood production company is filming in the city: A spy thriller blockbuster that will introduce the Venislarn monsters to the viewing public. It’s a dream come true for the marketing team.

Rod Campbell - former SAS soldier and now the first line of defence against the Venislarn horde - is less than keen. He’s meant to be on the movie set as an advisor but he’s already got his hands full.

Gods are demanding human sacrifices, renegade Venislarn are seeking asylum on earth and there’s a magical teapot that says the city is facing imminent destruction. It’s going to be a tough week and Rod might not live to see the end of it.

the hidden world within every day life, unseen by majority and unaware of the danger.

I love that the story is based around Birmingham with all its history and multicultural life. A wonderful fantasy that you could believe maybe real.😁😁😁😁😁

Brilliant

Really enjoying this series, one of the best I’ve ever listened to. The story is very different and the characters are superb.
The thing that makes it even better is the narration, truly excellent. There are a lot of different characters, human and alien, and they are all brilliantly done.
Must mention one of the funniest moments in any book I’ve listened to.
It’s worth buying the book if only for Rod and Cathy’s sex scene. Priceless!

suspense, exciting, funny

this is the third book in oddjob series and is as enjoyable and entertaining as the first. the characters are likeable. the monsters are sinister and the jokes are amusing. the plot moves along with fast paced action, period dramas, science fiction, accurate historical fact, fantasy, sex and romance. I can't wait to read number 4

Laughed and laughed

Matthew Lloyd Davies does another excellent performance of a comic genius book that entertained me.

Lots of fun!

I've become quite a fan of HG and IG. laugh out loud silly and well written. Would have been 5 star but had to go back a couple of times to reread as lost the gist of who/what/where.
Downloading the next right now!

Stops just when it's starting to get in nteresting

I thought I ordered a book, not 3/4 of a book. Good up to it abruptly ending without finishing the story.
