Description
Finding work is easy. Staying alive is a little bit harder.
When Russ Wesley finds an unusual artifact in his grandfather’s collection of rare antiquities, the last thing he expects is for it to draw the attention of a ferocious alien from a distant planet. Equally surprising is the adventurous team of intergalactic exterminators dispatched to deal with the alien threat. They’re a little wild, and a little reckless. Worse yet, they’re so impressed with Russ’s marksmanship that they insist he join their squad . . . whether he wants to or not.
“This book is so much fun it ought to be illegal in all known galaxies. Ash Bishop has written a wildly imagined, deeply felt, swashbuckling page-turner. I loved it.” —Jesse Kellerman, New York Times bestselling author of The Burning

This was such a good read! Finally something fresh, interesting, full of intergalactic aliens, portals, spaceships, murderous insects, predatory apes, funny (main character syndrome) robots, mysterious bookstores and awesome characters. Oh and those pain pills! 🤤 I've enjoyed every chapter thoroughly, the chemistry between Russ and Nina was great, i loved all the twists and the turns in the story and i absolutely CAN.T WAIT. for the next book, please tell me we'll have a sequel because I NEED IT RIGHT NOW 😩. (ok now that i calmed down i'm asking politely in lowercase). And this is the author's first novel! Congratulations and bravo!

Are you looking for a novel that’s half part Men in Black, half Dr. Who? Most likely, like me, you didn’t even know that’s what you were looking for. Intergalactic Exterminators, Inc was a pure gem to read. This was a pleasurable story of sci-fi goodness that Ash Bishop crafted. It’s fun and fast past, yet really character driven with lots of growth and emotion. This fun read is the first in what my heart hopes will be a long lived series.
I received an ARC copy of this book from CamCat Books and NetGallery. All opinions in the review are my own.

Thank you to #NetGalley, #AshBishop, and #VictoryEditing for letting me read and review #IntergalacticExterminatorInc.
Russ and Nina are in need of some financial help and a break from the stress of just trying to live a regular life. Then one day, Russ finds a rare gem in his late grandfather’s book shop. He asks his grandmother about the stone, and she does not know anything about it. She tells Russ to take it to Nina, who might know what it is. Only, Nina has no clue, as well.
Thus begins a story unlike any Earthling could imagine. This story gave me many Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy vibes. There is planetary traveling, portals, humor, odd creatures, witty banter and a smidgeon of romance.
If you enjoy the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and need something similar, I highly recommend Intergalactic Exterminators, Inc.
There is so much potential for more of this story, I am hoping for a series. I would love to learn more about the Intergalactic Exterminators crew.
