The Kaiju Preservation Society is John Scalzi's first standalone adventure since the conclusion of his New York Times bestselling Interdependency trilogy.
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 who have found their way to the alternate world. Others have, too. And their carelessness could cause millions back on our Earth to die.

微信读书在读原著方面可以分段翻译，很方便，所以无聊也当学习看完了

满分推荐，唯一的遗憾就是主角和Tom之间的互动，因为最后的阴谋事件而不了了之。新人小分队的互动可以继续

从封面画风，我一直以为Kaiju是某个太平洋岛国之类的。对日系从未感冒过的我一直读了几章，真正进入KPS之后，才明白这是日漫中的怪兽！画风顿时迥别于我原来的预期！非常轻松幽默的科幻小品文，风格与作者处女作相似。

词汇量的匮乏就体现在很多单词眼熟而不知其意。🥲

跟着雨果奖提名来读的这本书：美国版饿了么高管被裁员沦为骑手，在顾客邀请下加入怪兽保护协会的故事。有很多很多很多抖机灵对话，感觉可以直接拿去影视化变成美剧。整体而言是很轻松愉快幽默的一本书，虽然对我这样的正剧爱好者来说会有点不耐烦，就像看见第二十条里雷佳音和马丽的小品般对话一样不耐烦（conspiracy开始的时候才逐渐精彩起来，此时全书进度条已经75%了）…但看到后记里作者觉得被Covid伤害后的... 跟着雨果奖提名来读的这本书：美国版饿了么高管被裁员沦为骑手，在顾客邀请下加入怪兽保护协会的故事。有很多很多很多抖机灵对话，感觉可以直接拿去影视化变成美剧。整体而言是很轻松愉快幽默的一本书，虽然对我这样的正剧爱好者来说会有点不耐烦，就像看见第二十条里雷佳音和马丽的小品般对话一样不耐烦（conspiracy开始的时候才逐渐精彩起来，此时全书进度条已经75%了）…但看到后记里作者觉得被Covid伤害后的世界需要这样一本pop song而非symphony般的书，我觉得也有道理吧。 (展开)

中文译者翻译腔太重了，还不如看英文版，不过就算英文版，在最初的对新鲜设定好奇过后，剧情就没啥意思了，都是些意料之中的发展，进入高潮太慢了，高潮部分又太短，只能说空有设定，其他内容细看经不起推敲，看个乐呵罢了。为什么这种小说都能得奖啊🤔

还是一贯的风格，抖不完的小聪明和趣味。前半和怪兽星球的风土人情非常有趣，但是进入危机事件反而后劲不足。还是希望看到很多日常故事。
