Publisher's summary

Adrian Monk has journeyed into the realm of the cult science-fiction show Beyond Earth, where he meets fans just as obsessive-compulsive as he is. Monk is at their convention because there may be a killer lurking in the Beyond Earth community: someone in a starship uniform has very publicly gunned down the show's legendary creator, Conrad Stipe. Could a fan be that furious at him for selling out to an exploitative Hollywood producer? Or is there more going on behind the scenes in Stipe's life?

OK Book

The book was OK, but the end didn't make sense. Apparently, some pages were skipped because Natalie was in the building, in the car, then in the building again. And she mentioned driving through the window, which never happened - at least in the reading it didn't! Please be sure the entire book is read; otherwise, why are we buying them from Audible???

Seed's view

Classic Mr. Monk. I think I lost some of the ending so will listen on cloud and re-download if necessary. Otherwise great story.

True To Character

I actually stumbled upon the Monk books on Audible by accident. But they are well done. They maintain the characters like the TV show (or vice versa as the case may be). Lots of little giggle moments in there. Recommend them all.

Monk vs nerds

This one was a little hard to get through. Not going to go into spoilers here but when you expect Mr. Monk to have issues with germs, nudism, even odd numbers. When confronted by someone he knows who is part of a cult following, Monk becomes as cold as Stottlemeyer. It was interesting to see Monk show this side of himself. The murder and mystery were quite interesting to listen to. My only complaint was listening to Monk be so far out of character.

Too much filler

As other reviewers noted, part of the story near the end is left out. Other than that, I have two chief complaints: 1) There's WAY too much time taken up by Natalie's constant musings over things like her situation in life and what makes Monk the way he is . 2) Compared with the TV show, Monk is just too annoying in the book. His character annoys people in the TV show, but there is almost always a degree of humor in it. Few instances of Monk's being annoying in the book are amusing.

Hello ComiCon

Truly a Monk tale. Not the greatest but still will have you laughing and guessing. Lay back relax, just listen.

Another great Monk Book

Mr. Monk in Outer Space follows the same familiar light hearted formula used in the other Monk books. The author does a great job of staying true to the television characters.
The narrator is excellent and enjoyable to listen to. Thus far Angela Brazil is the best narrator for the Monk series.
I hope more Monk books will follow.
In conclusion, if you are a fan of Monk or looking for a light and fluffy mystery - you'll like this.

Contains Warm Fuzzy Moments

This Mr. Monk might be fun for Star Trekkies. Mr. Monk has some particularly outrageous evidence in this book. His brother Ambrose is interesting. Listen up!
