***The Kaiju Preservation Society* by John Scalzi is a thrilling, fast-paced adventure set on an alternate Earth – perfect for fans of Adrian Tchaikovsky and Michel Crichton’s *Jurassic Park.* They’re big, they’re bad and they’re about to become extinct . . .** Jamie’s dream was to hit the big time at a New York tech start-up. Jamie’s reality was a humiliating lay-off, then a lowwage job as a takeaway delivery driver. During a pandemic too. Things look beyond grim, until a chance delivery to an old acquaintance. Tom has an urgent vacancy on his team: the pay is great and Jamie has debts – it’s a no-brainer choice. Yet, once again, reality fails to match expectations. Only this time it could be fatal. It seems Tom’s ‘animal rights organization’ is way more than it appears. The animals aren’t even on Earth – or not our Earth, anyway. In an alternate dimension, massive dinosaur-like creatures roam a tropical, human-free world. And although Kaiju are their universe’s largest and most dangerous animal, they need support to survive. Tom’s ‘Kaiju Preservation Society’ wants to help. However, others want to profit. Unless they’re stopped, the walls between our worlds could fall – and the consequences would be devastating.

John Scalzi consistently delivers in a genre that can be hit or miss. The really impressive part of that is he’s great writing heavy, meaty spec-fic (as in the Interdependency trilogy) or something seemingly more light-hearted (Redshirts.) The Kaiju Preservation Society is firmly in his fun column, with hilarious characters trying to keep the world safe from Kaiju invasions by ensuring that all of the behemoth creatures’ needs are met in their own world. This is a great read that cries to be adapted as a film or TV series, and could very easily be the first of a series.
