The Ridiculous

The Ridiculous Series, Book 1

By: Jeffrey Neil Kippel, Mindy Heather Blackstien

Narrated by: Alan Irving

A laugh-out-loud sci-fi comedy of cosmic chaos, absurd adventure, and surprising depth.

A human wakes up in an alien body.

A budgie thinks life is a musical.

An AI won’t shut up.

An android just wants to feel things.

And absolutely no one knows what they’re doing.

They’re not a crew.

There’s no plan.

And nobody is really in charge.

What unfolds is a not-quite-accidental, frequently illogical, occasionally profound journey through life, the universe, and everything. And it’s all told through curious beings, at improbable moments, with meaning hiding where you’d least expect it.

Welcome to The Ridiculous—where intergalactic chaos, absurd humor, and sneakily profound moments collide. Perfect for fans of sci-fi comedy, absurdist fiction, space opera humor, and stories that hide deeper meaning when you least expect it.

This newly revised and expanded edition delivers 42% more laughs, cosmic absurdity, and galaxy-hopping chaos than ever before. What begins as a cosmic accident spirals into a journey where snack breaks are sacred, rules are optional, and the most ridiculous moments… might just be the most important.

Meet Serbinand—a blissfully clueless alien with a human soul and a motto that reads: Have fun. Play dumb. Alongside a Broadway-belting budgie and a philosophical AI, he stumbles through a universe that’s equal parts satire, comedy, and heart.
