You think you’re struggling to find your place in the universe?

Consider poor old Colin Douglass, a terminally ill insurance agent who awakens from centuries in cryogenic freeze to find Earth is a devastated wasteland. Now, he’s being pursued by a homicidal interstellar tourist board, and calculating insurance dividends is as outdated as making stone axes.

Sci-fi-hating technophobe Colin embarks on a desperate struggle to find a cure for his illness, as well as a place for himself in this strange new galaxy where toilets talk back, and door handles are a long-forgotten relic. Only by teaming up with his rescuer, hard-boiled, space-traveling archaeologist Tyresa Jak (that’s Doctor Jak to you), can Colin hope to succeed before time runs out.

Along the way, this galactic odd-couple must evade the Erd Tourist Board - a powerful mega-corporation which will do anything to ensure the mythical Earth stays mythical - and deal with a crackpot religious cult who not only possess a cure for Colin’s illness, but who also believe there is more to this caveman from Earth than meets the eye....

Don't miss the start of this side-splitting intergalactic adventure. It's perfect for fans of Guardians of the Galaxy, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and Space Team.

Mix of Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy and Rip van Winkle. Very British humor, dry and witty. It has interesting take on how the future evolves. You can't help but feel sorry for poor Colin. Everything goes wrong for him no matter how hard he tries.

The contrast between Tyresa and Colin makes for lots of funny scenes. The story itself is a bit fantastical but that isn't really the point with a comedy. I can't wait until the next book is out.

The narrator did a good job with the voices and his pacing made the story exciting in the right places. It was like listening to a British movie or TV show.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

So I made it through. Barely. The story was good, but the narrator. Holy hell the narrator. When he was just narrating his voice was fine, but when he did any one of the voices it was horible. 70 percent of the charecters just sniveled and whined the ENTIRE BOOK. The other 30 percent of them where just voiced so incredibly over the top I almost turned it off multiple times. Just 10 hours of whining in my ear. Dont think I can make it through the next book.

Man I really wanted to like this one

Karl Beecher channels Douglas Adams in this kooky sci-fi adventure of an insurance analyst IN SPAAAACE. But seriously, who can pass up the chance to ride the Evolutionator and explore the original pool of slime where life began? Oh, and sweet bonus: there's plentiful parking at Erd (the future name of Earth). For the complete experience, read this book with a British accent in mind, or better yet, listen to Steve West’s top notch audiobook narration.

The book reminded me of the We Are Bob series. Except, I think this one is better. It's a very smooth listen (not uneven, like many books I've listened to). If you like funny sci-fi, I highly recommend it. Narration was very good as well. Looking forward to listening to the sequel.

If you like the Bobiverse series...

This isn't a Isekai novel, but really it might as well be. The way it starts. It's really similar to Denis E Taylor's Bobiverse. Starting out with a cryogenic pod. But from there everything goes ascue. I immediately fell for Colin the MC. Empathizing with the predicament he finds himself in... then waking up where no 20th century guy has gone before. With a whole new reality awaiting him.
Karl Beecher writes with a light touch and it shows up in the book. So go grab the book and be entertained as Steve West gives us a superb performance.

And a couple of quotes...

"Shoot first, ask questions, then shoot some more."

"And we can't even find a man who sticks out like a Bic on a wedding cake."

"He suddenly became aware of his eye brows, which had lifted so high up his forehead they were close to adding a couple of centimeters to his height."

Starts out just like a Isekai novel as MC wakes.

the story plot, though not unique, was well written, the characters well formed, a little predictable, with religion and politics. the narrator's performance was excellent.

finn and easy to listen to

Must listen! This is the single most entertaining book I've heard, and the only one I've listened to more than once. Steve West delivers a killer performance, as always. And wonderfully written... its a shame there's not more books from this author. I'd listen to them all!

Laugh out loud Sci-Fi, perfect performance

A great book! Good british humor and an intriguing story as well. The absurdness of a present day person being thrown into a future spacefaring civilisation. One of the best parts of this book is the naming of characters and places (I mean...ERD! :D ). Loved the narrator as well. First time I've listened to a book he's narrated, and he did a great job. Good job for the author on his first audiobook. Looking forward to the follow up!! Can't wait to see how this story continues.

Great Listen!

OR: "Don't you ever stop moaning, Colin?"
It was a bad day for Colin Doouglas. Firstly, he was sacked from his job, replaced in his insurance job by a computer, then he discovered someone had broken into his car. Head aching and sight spotted by little white aliens, he ends the day going to his doctor's appointment to learn that he has an incurable disease and only a few more weeks to live. And yes, this is a comedy. Colin opts for a new form of cryogenics. And there we leave him - for a very long time. Until after the Earth has been lost and a new planet promoted as the birthplace of humanity...

This book is a delight. Perhaps not quite the non stop hilarity promised, but nevertheless funny, and how refreshing for the humour not to be totally dependent on schoolboy jokes and toilet guffaws. This is a good, basic thriller, too, not overly original but simply and well presented so it retains the excitement of the chase. A great intergalactic adventure story for all ages. Narration is expertly performed by Steve West who's English accented voice was the perfect foil for Colin. Not only did Mr.West individually voice all of the protagonists, his reading was perfectly paced, with good intonation and with a close adherence to the emotions of the text. His delivery really enhanced the reading experience.

My thanks to the rights holder of Interstellar Caveman, who, at my request via Aethon, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. Perhaps not a contender for a prize in high literature, this book is sure to bring a smile and lightness of heart to any reader, especially fans of science fiction. Highly recommended for an enjoyable read

It was a big galaxy and life was short.
