The Big Sheep

The Big Sheep by Robert Kroese and read by Fred Berman is a fun soft sci-fi procedural thriller. Blake Fowler, partner to PI - that's Phenomenological Inquisitor - Erasmus Keane, takes the cases of a missing sheep and a possible conspiracy involving a starlet that take him all across a future dystopian Los Angeles. Kroese generally found success blending humor and plot to craft a story that I found compelling. Some characters felt somewhat underdeveloped, and perhaps the plot dragged or became a little bit lost in some places, but overall I thought it was a lot of fun. I think fans of authors like John Scalzi (The Android's Dream), G.S. Denning (Warlock Holmes), and David Brin (Kiln People) might enjoy this book. I look forward to checking out the sequel, The Last Iota, and continuing the story. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
