The Hippo Who Fell to Earth
(2025)(The fifth book in the Very Funny Sci-F series)
A Story by Donald Beavers
He's Back!
Get Ready for Book Five of THE FELIX BUMBLESNAP MISADVENTURES!
Dr. Felix Bumblesnap just wanted to smooth out some minor spatial distortions. Instead, he imported a three-ton, philosophical hippopotamus from another dimension. Directly into the City Hall fountain. Naturally.
In the fifth installment of this laugh-out-loud series, the city faces its most bizarre challenge yet. Meet Hippocrates: polite, profound, permanently parked, and completely immune to Felix’s increasingly frantic attempts at repatriation. But this accidental arrival isn't just another Bumblesnap disaster. Hippocrates' strange philosophical calm starts unintentionally resolving conflicts between sentient kittens and vacuum bots, baffling city officials, and creating a surprisingly peaceful (if damp) new status quo.
Featuring the beloved cast - including the politically ambitious Bobo the Chimp, Felix's charmingly villainous rival Professor Doomly, and the ever-expanding roster of sentient entities - Book Five delivers the hilarious hijinks, witty satire, and surprising heart fans expect.
If you love the comedic chaos of authors like Douglas Adams or the quirky charm of authors like Becky Chambers, prepare for another dive into Felix's world, where the path to harmony might just be paved with watermelon rinds. Welcome back to the misadventures - where science goes sideways, philosophy gets floppy, and the solutions are always stranger than the problems.
‘THE HIPPO WHO FELL TO EARTH‘ continues the series' signature blend of razor-sharp wit, bureaucratic absurdity, surprisingly heartfelt moments, and existential ponderings (mostly from a hippo).
Genre: Science Fiction
