There are times when you need to challenge your mind: perhaps a whodunit that keeps you in the dark until the last page or a character driven drama that leaves the reader teary eyed. The Adventures of Kirk Rogers – Inside the Moon by C.J. Boyle is not one of those books and will instead delight the reader and bring a smile to one’s face.

This story was reminiscent of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. It is a light hearted read mixed with colourful characters, easter eggs, and geek humour that is sure to tickle your funny bone. True to form, this science fiction saga would play well as a radio show, television series, or even a movie… minus the sexy aspects, of course.

While the first in a series, The Adventures of Kirk Rogers – Inside the Moon has a satisfying ending that includes  a hint of what is to come. This quick read will draw you in, immerse you into the author’s beautifully weaved world, and will leave you begging for more. Fortunately, there are two more books left in the series with a fourth on the way!
