The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
John Scalzi wastes no time putting us into the shoes of Jamie Gray: a wholly relatable point-of-view schlub who trades our bleak, present day dystopia of gig economies, crushing rents, and corporate villainy for an equally lethal world of mountain-sized monsters, conspiracies, and callous corporate villainy. The Kaiju Preservation Society is the print equivalent of a big, fast-paced, sci-fi action movie with a genuinely fresh take on the kaiju genre (that’s Japanese giant monster movies for the uninitiated). —Aaron
