Ever wish the universe came with a refund policy? Good news… this is the book that files the claim on your behalf.

What begins as a cosmic accident spirals into a laugh-out-loud journey through a universe where the rules are optional, snack breaks are sacred, and the most ridiculous moments… might just be the most important.

Meet Serbinand — a blissfully clueless alien with a shape-shifting bodysuit, a soul-swapped human consciousness, and a motto that reads: “Have fun. Play dumb.” He didn’t ask to inherit a sentient spaceship, make first contact with a Broadway-belting budgie, or accidentally trigger a galactic joyride — but here we are.

Blending satirical sci-fi, absurdist fiction, parody, and philosophical humor, The Ridiculous: Book 1 will leave you laughing uncontrollably… and maybe questioning everything.

Perfect for fans of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Good Omens, Spaceballs, Monty Python and Red Dwarf, this cosmic comedy adventure is your gateway to a universe powered by laughter, snack-fueled existential crises, and just enough meaning to make you pause mid-laugh.

Inside, you’ll hear:

• Galaxy-hopping absurdity

• Snack-fueled existential crises

• Philosophical AIs with a flair for the dramatic

• Talking lifeforms with questionable motives

• And just enough meaning to make you pause mid-laugh

Created by Jef & Mindy — pioneers in immersive storytelling, comedy-driven transformation, and gamified experiences — The Ridiculous isn’t just a book. It’s the beginning of an interdimensional franchise powered by fans, Web3, and 3D interactive worlds… helping you dream big, do ridiculous, and achieve remarkable.

Scroll up, grab your copy, and prepare to question your sanity… twice.
