The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi

​Ah, finally, popcorn sci-fi at its best. KPS is Scalzi doing what Scalzi does best – lighthearted humorous otherworldly adventure.
Jamie, the protagonist with easy every guy appeal, gets hit by the 2020 economic recession more than most: his penis of a boss fires him in a most unceremoniously humiliating manner and Jamie spends six months delivering food to the shut-ins, masked and annoyed. And then, one of his regular customers changes his life by offering him a job. Not just any job - an opportunity of a lifetime. Great pays, great perks, and he gets to work with large animals.
A description that turns out to be hugely inadequate for the job.
The large animals KPS deals with are not like any you’ve seen. On this Earth, anyway. Outside of movies that is. You have indeed seen them in movies, but you were calling them monsters then. Think Godzilla and company. Yeah, those large animals.
Oh multiverse, what secrets you possess…
So, now it’s a grand adventure with giant monsters. And an entertaining one at that. Yes, the last third with the villain reveal and all those plot convolutions dragged ever so slightly and yes, every single character came across alike due to the exactly same trademark Scalzian glib jocularity, which can create a sort of one-note tonality, but overall, its’ just pure fun. Popcorn, cheesy popcorn, giant monster fun of a novel and a very enjoyable read. Unless you’re one of those weirdos who doesn’t love giant monsters and then there’s nothing to tell you what joy is. Recommended.
