Summary

"Like crack for my eyeballs!" (Amazon reviewer)

While trying to stop a cyber-attacker stealing all Space Team's hard-earned money, the cyborg, Mech, unlocks a secret partition in his hard drive, revealing a mysterious set of coordinates. 

The co-ordinates lead the team to Funworld, a planet-sized theme park with a worrying number of artificially intelligent clownbots, and a shocking disregard for Health & Safety. 

With no weapons, and a shapeshifter who can no longer shift-shape, Space Team's quest to unlock Funworld's mysteries leads them deep into the planet's core - and to the horrors that inhabit it - where they uncover the shocking secret Mech had no idea he was keeping. 

Featuring space clowns, the second-last human alive, and at least one fleeting reference to Scooby Doo, Space Team: Planet of the Japes is the seventh hilarious book in the internationally best-selling Space Team series.

The worst of the BEST

This one is not my favourite but I love all the series and listen to the books over and over because they give me a good laugh and Phil Thron is the perfect narrator

A bit meh

I’m working my way through the canon and found this book to be a bit weak. I love the reading style of Phil Thron but the author sometimes struggles with pace by side tracking with inconsequential nonsense. I appreciate this is part of his style and often enjoy it but there’s a time and a place. On to the next one….
