About this listen

Once, they stood next to justice. Now they're standing up for it...

When sworn protectors of Earth, the Justice Platoon, are all horribly killed, their former arch-enemies come crawling out of the woodwork. Outnumbered, outgunned, and out of options, the US government has no choice but to activate the Sidekicks Initiative, dragging the Platoon's middle-aged ex-sidekicks out of retirement.

Now these three reluctant, out of shape former child-wonders must work together to stop the rising tide of supervillainy, avenge their former mentors' deaths, and bring the world back from the brink of destruction.

Assuming they don't kill each other first.

Featuring anaphylactic shockwaves, unexpected hippos, and an aggressive man shouting at butterflies, The Sidekicks Initiative is the first book in the action-packed new series from internationally best-selling Space Team author, Barry J. Hutchison.

Brilliant match with Barry and Phil. Excellent writing and narration. Really enjoyed, and a few accidents splurting (lol) out my coffee, and choking with laughter. Love it when a book cheers me up. Please write another!
Make sure you listen to Phils outakes, just don’t be drinking coffee, or driving, or with anyone else In the vicinity. It’s one way for the neighbours to start avoiding you.
