Kill-crazy mercenaries, gargantuan monstrosities, and a "sixth sense" that may be a death wish in disguise. Augie Brunthouse's first day of work is not going well.

It all started with Chuck Vestiglio's exile and subsequent suicide on his private island, derisively dubbed "Supersize Island" by the press. Now the disgraced hamburger baron's unhinged son has vowed to silence the family's critics with a psychotic plot to grow beef better. Alas, his wildly illegal biotech experiments have gone wrong in a very BIG way. Somebody needs to look into it.

Enter Augie. He hasn't cared about anything since his erratic precognition failed to warn him about the cancer that killed his mother. So it's time for a fresh start - at Spiel Timmitel, Corp. Augie doesn't know what STC does, or why they've sent him a gazillion recruitment flyers. But they're offering a huge salary and training in the Caribbean. Unfortunately, that training will turn out to be a shipwreck on Supersize Island. Cue the giant squirrel, parrot, and possum.

I loved this book! It was so well crafted, it kept me riveted all the way through! There were quite a few laugh out loud moments and the narration really brought the characters to life! I highly recommend the audio book, but I think I want to experience it again on paper. I hope JJ Walsh publishes a sequel because I would love to know what happens next!

Such a fun, well written story!

What a trip this was! Fast paced, funny, and a little heartfelt. Going just by the premise, I’m glad I got to experience this with no other knowledge, and I’d advise others to do the same, The surprises on this island are utterly bonkers. The performance was also well done, a couple of the accents fell short, but not enough to take me out of the story. Really looking forward to the further adventures of Augie!

This was a really nice commute listen. Some unexpected twists and turns, good laughs, nothing too heavy.

This book is absolutely absurd in the best possible way! The story is a fun ride. This is’t a book where you will learn a deep message. It’s a funny fun crazy ride. Luke Daniels does a fantastic job narrating.

Fun Ride

Have Fun! The story about as absurd and overstuffed as anything could be and that's the point. Be ready to laugh and enjoy the ride.

it's ridiculous but fun

When I get into a book that I enjoy from the start, I try to pace myself. But Supersized Island... I couldn't wait to listen to the next chapter...and I couldn't put it down till a chapter was finished.

You see, I really only listen to audible books when I'm in my car. And I really don't drive much these days. But I made excuses to drive just to listen to this book. Not only is it funny, but the story and mystery is compelling. And the deaths of secondary characters are hilarious! And in the back of my mind I know the 2 main characters are gonna survive....but how? These guys are the 2 luckiest SoB's in the history of the world! And it never gets boring.

Also the choice of actor to read all the characters is a great choice. Luke Daniels does an amazing job at making all the characters sound different. If there's a sequel...he has to read it.

Also a side note...I found myself eating a lot of burgers during my listening time. You may gain a pound or 2 by the end. But definitely worth it.

The beefiest of stories I've ever devoured!
