When COVID-19 sweeps through New York City, Jamie Gray is stuck as a dead-end driver for food delivery apps. That is, until Jamie makes a delivery to an old acquaintance, Tom, who works at what he calls "an animal rights organization." Tom's team needs a last-minute grunt to handle things on their next field visit. Jamie, eager to do anything, immediately signs on.

What Tom doesn't tell Jamie is that the animals his team cares for are not here on Earth. Not our Earth, at least. In an alternate dimension, massive dinosaur-like creatures named Kaiju roam a warm and human-free world. They're the universe's largest and most dangerous panda and they're in trouble.

It's not just the Kaiju Preservation Society that's found its way to the alternate world. Others have, too--and their carelessness could cause millions back on our Earth to die.

Hacía tiempo que no leía algo divertido de verdad. KPS es una novela muy entretenida, como ver una película, donde el humor es constante y las referencias a cultura pop abundantes. Se lee rápido y se agradece que sea una historia cerrada, aunque creo que no me importaría volver a este universo de científicos que se matan por cuidar con mimo de monstruos como edificios.

Voy a seguir leyendo alguna novela más de Scalzi antes de pasar a otra cosa.
