À propos de cet audio

Laugh First. Think Later.

What if the universe isn’t broken… it’s just ridiculous?

The Ridiculous: Book 1 is a smart, absurd sci-fi comedy about identity, agency, friendship, and what happens when reality bends, logic misbehaves, and meaning sneaks in sideways.

It all begins with a cosmic mistake.

One glitched exchange.

A soul swap.

Between an Earthling and something very much not from Earth.

What follows is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adventure filled with surreal hijinks, layered humor, sharp banter, and unexpected moments of clarity. This is a story where nothing goes as planned, rules are optional, and the ridiculous has a habit of revealing truth.

At its core, The Ridiculous explores big ideas lightly, using laughter that relieves rather than ridicules. It’s thoughtful without being heavy, philosophical without being preachy, and funny in a way that respects the listener's intelligence.

Expect:

  • Absurd space comedy and cosmic misadventures
  • Playful satire and witty dialogue
  • Unexpected joy, nostalgia, and perspective
  • Purpose-filled punchlines and ideas that linger

Listeners who enjoy the wit, warmth, and playful absurdity of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Terry Pratchett, Red Dwarf, or Vonnegut-style sci-fi satire often feel right at home here.

This is not a story that explains the universe.

It’s a story that invites you to enjoy it.

Designed for effortless escape, the audiobook edition is perfect for late-night listening, travel, or dipping into absurd brilliance whenever inspiration strikes. The Ridiculous: Book 1 can be enjoyed completely on its own and also serves as the perfect entry point into the larger Ridiculous universe.

I decided that I would sit down, relax and immerse myself in The Ridiculous Audible. I knew this one was going to be different. My very pleasant surprise was how I was feeling listening to the book. It made me laugh out loud and feel good and it was so much fun listening to all the different voices of all the characters!
I can’t even imagine how difficult it was to get all the voices of the characters! And the story script is amazingly told.
I would highly recommend this audio book and will be listening to the story again and again! This was and is a great escape out of the ordinary!
Great job to the author’s Jeffrey Neil Kippel and Mindy Heather Blackstien! Also Alan Irving! I commend you on your great performance!

so I got the audible version of this because I don't really have time to read for pleasure as I am a scientist and I'm always reading dry humorless research papers, as such I figured the perfect time to read this would be in the car with audio. there was a problem however, I was laughing so hard and I enjoyed it so much that I'm not sure I was driving very safely. my suggestion is if you're going to get the audible version of this then listen to it at home in bed where you're comfortable and you can't hurt yourself. a word to the wise :-)

my face hurts!

Hi, I'm the Co-Author of *The Ridiculous*, and I wanted to share how incredible Alan Irving's performance is!

We auditioned 95 voice actors, and Alan's portrayal of the characters stood out. We needed a British narrator with a style blending “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”, “Monty Python”, and “Fawlty Towers”—and he nailed it!

Alan’s quirky characters make it a fun listen for all ages. This updated and revised audiobook version is packed with even more hilarity, laugh-out-loud moments, and meaningful mindset shifts. Some character voices have been refined, making it even more captivating.

The audiobook has already reached #5 on Audible in Humorous Science Fiction Additionally, Amazon ranked the book #1 in Comedy, Science Fiction, Self-Help & Psychology Humor, and Happiness.

Enjoy this adventure and the rest of the trilogy of trilogies—yes, that’s nine books in the series!
