      Set against the backdrop of sci-fi/fantasy comedy, “The Ridiculous” invites you on a journey that challenges your reality. Beyond its humor, it possesses heart. With messages about life, the universe, and everything, “The Ridiculous” promises a mind-bending, thought-provoking adventure filled with smiles and laughter. Meet a being whose soul unexpectedly comes to reside in the fuzzy body suit of an alien. No longer on planet Earth and with only an AI-infused intergalactic shapeshifting companion, and master of practical jokes (self-proclaimed), things truly get ridiculous. Moreover, the human’s birth body now hosts the extraterrestrial, who surprisingly finds contentment. He had never been to Earth. (That, and he’s on the run.) Amazon already recognized “The Ridiculous” as a #1 read across multiple categories: from Science Fiction & Comedy to Psychology & Self-Help Humor, all the way to… Happiness!  As a satire and sci-fi comedy, “The Ridiculous” offers the perfect escape for you. It also empowers you to do ridiculous things that elevate you from your ordinary to your extraordinary.  (Just ask the characters.) “The Ridiculous” has been likened to “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” meets “Monty Python” with a sprinkle of “Discworld” (plus Seinfeld, Spaceballs, Family Guy, Rick & Morty, The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dirk Turpin, The Jets, and Star Wars, all thrown in).
