About this listen

Lenny Hodge is a young man with certain abilities - special talents that even he doesn't understand. It is only when he joins Terrifitemps (the temporary employment agency that secretly controls the world) and meets his new team - a psychic, a vampire, a ghost hunter, and a werevole (yes, a werevole) - that Lenny realizes how much his special talent will put him in jeopardy.

But it's worth it, right? Hasn't Lenny always wanted to save the world?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I've been a fan of Craig's fiction for many years and it is a joy to find any of his titles on audio - what a treasure!

This book is very entertaining and full of fun scenes and Thomas Machin brings the characters to life.

What about Thomas Machin’s performance did you like?

All the characters are voiced well
