Jacey Bedford's Journal

I seem to have become a Dennis E. Taylor fan judging by the number of his audiobooks I’ve listened to, ably read by Ray Porter. The combination of Taylor’s literary voice and Porter’s reading is a winner. Porter brings out the quirkiness in Taylor’s stories. This is a standalone in which Jack, driving his father’s delivery truck, accidentally hits an invisible alien and kills him. On discovering that the thing he hit was seven feet tall and furry, Jack goes back to the scene of the accident and finds an invisible alien flying saucer that’s bigger on the inside. Together with his two friends they discover that the ship has a self-aware AI whom they name Sheldon, and then discover that there’s an plot by a different species of alien to take over Earth on a thin pretext of stepping in for humanity’s own good. A thoroughly enjoyable listen via Audible.
