Diego, a part time thief and our hapless protagonist, gets involved with agents from other worlds trying to take over our world. If you are sick of current political ideologies, you might be entertained as Diego encounters people with these ideologies on his quest to save the Earth. Narrator is great at all the voices.

Entertaining satire on current ideologies

This was both silly (in a very entertaining way) and quite profound. The narrator's performance of the text was probably the best I have heard on an audiobook.

Great performance and a very entertaining yarn.
