It's a lighthearted murder mystery ... with space aliens!

Gabriel Lake is a not so hard-boiled computer guy who finds himself swept up into a web of interstellar crime when he is recruited into the Galactic Detective Agency, led by the brilliant Oren Vilkas. Can a mere Earthling track a killer across the stars before more lives are lost? Can he negotiate his way around other worlds and understand the ways of extra-terrestrial cultures? Can he even figure out how to use a bathroom designed for aliens? And can he uncover the mystery of A Town Called Potato?

A Town Called Potato by Gary Blaine Randolph and narrated by Tim Radcliffe, is the first book in the Galactic Detective Agency. the story is about Gabriel Lake who’s reading list gets mistaken for the cases he solved and this is how he gets enticed into becoming a detective in search of a 20 foot tall princess named Ralph and Tam her normal sized husband. All they know is they’re hiding in a small town called potato Indiana a.k.a. Port auto he’s hired by his new boss Orin, who at one time was a person but upon his death got his brain downloaded and is now digital. His partner is a reptile name Zastra, whose relationship with Gabe is one of the best things about this book. He solved the initial mystery pretty quickly and got paid very well for his services. So when they come back the next day letting him know that the princesses husband is dead he’s once again working for the agency but this time instead of going to small town Indiana he will travel through the stars and see things he’s never seen let alone thought existed he even gets arrested and sentence to five years in jail on an alien planet the captain of another ship seems to have a crush on him but these are just a few of the exciting moments in the book because before long someone else is murdered and someone Gabriel holds very dear is threatened. There’s Giants, Reptilians, Shapeshifters and so much more in the book I thought the author did a great job creating the different worlds in the book and thought of so many things I would’ve never thought of especially when the cop ask Gabriel about his eyes and Gabriel said brown and the cop said no do you have one two or three! I laughed so hard and even rewinded it to let my husband listen this is truly an entertaining Book that I can’t wait to read the next addition in the series. I was given this book courtesy of adoptanaudiobook.com but it doesn’t affect my opinions as this is my honest opinions. #AdoptAnAudiobook.com, #TheBlindReviewer, #GaryBlaineRandolph, #ATownCalledPotato, #TimRadcliffe,

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to "A Town Called Potatoe". It was delightfully funny, and I loved the clever blend of classic detective noir with sci-fi elements.

"You say Tomato, I say To-mah-to."

An easy, fast, comedic listen. A who-done-it, murder mystery, hilarious ride. How about the Butler, in the Library, with the candlestick.

An intergalactic, murder mystery with "the Rock" as our guide. The MMC is a mediocre computer hacker, but the aliens think he's a genius. Across galaxies, you are met with one-liners, Steak-n-Shake, and mishaps. All individuals involved are working toward one thing. Solving the mystery before anyone else dies.

Narrator: His intonation makes the read. He brings to life the quirkiness of all the characters. Be ready for the laughs, the "Karens," and all the twists thrown at you to detour you from discovering who the murderer is.

What a Fun Ride

Tim Ratcliff’s narration was extremely effective and lighthearted. I can hear the fun he had stepping in to Gary Blaine Randolph’s world. There’s plenty of voice disparity between characters and emotive delivery to draw listeners in and keep them engaged. My critique is that the humor in the book often felt a bit forced and self serving to the author. I continually found this jokes landing flat and a bit cringy at times. All in all, a worthy listen, but the plot could benefit from a significant trimming…it’s a bit long IMO for what it accomplished. Still, my hats off for truly accomplishing an endeavor of providing a unique story….not an easy feat by any standards.

Outlandishly imaginative!

This was such a funny sci fi murder mystery!  I enjoyed how the author wrote Gabriel Lake, and he was such an easily likeable character.  I thought it was hilarious how the aliens approached Gabriel, and enjoyed learning about the alien technology.  The running commentary and how some things were similar was funny. I enjoyed connecting all the dots and trying to figure out who was behind everything.  The narrator, Tim Ratliff does a great job portraying Gabriel and several of the alien species. He kept me engaged till the very end.  This would be great for fans of A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Sherlock Holmes. I also believe that this would be fun to read for middle grade readers! 

A fun mystery!

This was a fun sci-fi murder mystery. Our main character, Gabriel Lake, runs his own computer programming business, but it’s his deep knowledge of the murder mystery genre that gets him abducted by aliens. These extraterrestrials want to hire him first to find a missing princess, then to solve a murder.
I liked that the story never took itself too seriously. It’s a great pick for busy minds who want something entertaining but not too heavy. I also enjoyed the twist and the touch of romance. As someone who doesn't read a lot of sci-fi, I felt like the story was still really accessible and easy to get into.
