A fair dose of inter-cosmic shenanigans blended with earthly mundanities all curdled into a cauldron of knockabout fun. Firstly, there is some alien intervention of the confused kind, where a traveller from another realm ends up somehow inhabiting prime hipster space. This being a challenging starting point for any entity, there follows a vibrant quest to phone home, filled with the obstacles of modern hipster life, and a (I would call him a sidekick but I don’t think he’d appreciate that) vocally expressive feline named Gary.
This book is fun to read, with several threads featuring different characters, all entertaining in their parallel perspectives. I especially liked the expressive nature of one character as he utilised the tyranny of self-help doctrines to embolden his increasingly psychotic leanings.
Easy to breeze through, genuinely inventive in parts, imaginative in an innocent Jackanory way sometimes, and the goodnatured and self aware humour is a constant companion.
The threads could’ve been tightened up a bit, as there were some characters that held my attention more successfully than others. This can, of course, be put down to personal taste also. Hence a strong 3.5, but still very much worth taking a chance on especially for fans of Douglas Adams and Grant Naylor.

Where to start? If you like Douglas Adams, Chuck Palahniuk, Haruki Murakami or Douglas Coupland then Luke Kondor is definitely for you.
The thing about the hipster from outer-space is you better read it on a day you really have time to read because chances are you won't want to put it down till you finish it.
Impeccable description of the characters, you're there side to side with them, that's very much appreciated. Also I need more Gary in my life.
I highly recommend you to read The Underdog Stories as well; clever, fresh, unexpected narratives. About that go check the author's site, you're welcome.

Of course I'm bloody well giving this book 5 stars. I wrote the thing!
- An alien wakes up in the body of a hipster in East London.
- A talking cat becomes his guide.
- A serial killer obsessed with self-help is hunting him down.
- An old lady and her dog are convinced the world is ending.

My original The Hipster From Outer Space audiobook review and many others can be found at Audiobook Reviewer.
I wasn’t sure what to expect from The Hipster From Outer Space and wasn’t entirely convinced it would be the right audiobook for me. I can honestly say I’ve never listened to anything quite like this in my life. It is an immensely imaginative, surrealistic and satirical science fiction story, and I loved it!
Moomamu is an ancient alien who has experienced a lot. Different cultures, different planets. But when he wakes up in London and finds himself occupying the body of a human, a hipster, he just wants to get back home because life on earth is rather perplexing. Fortunately, he meets Gary. Gary is a cat. A cat that speaks. Returning home isn’t straightforward, though. There is a psychopath with an obsession for self-help tapes and then the matter of having to save the earth and humankind.
Obviously, this is totally wacky and absurd but it was an awful lot of fun and great entertainment for 9 hours. Luke Kondor has a nice style of writing that is easy to engage with and with his very creative mind and brilliant sense of humor his story held my attention for the entire time.
The story is told from different perspectives, which required a bit of concentration initially to keep up with all the different characters and to work out how it all fitted together.
The highlight for me was the way the author imagined how a creature from outer space would view our modern society and experience our daily lives, from commuting to coffee shops to living with pets etc. Lots of irony and fun. There is a bit of swearing, but it was right for the characters. The violence wasn’t over the top or gratuitous.
This is book 1 of a trilogy and while there is no huge cliffhanger, the ending leaves the plot and some of the characters’ fates wide open. The other two books haven’t been released yet. I would certainly be interested in listening to future sequels. Especially, if narrated by Ian McEuen, whom I hadn’t listened to before. His absolutely fantastic narration really enhanced my enjoyment of this story. He excelled at the many unique and distinctive voices that were all completely suitable for the particular characters. Apart from Moomamu and Gary, the cat (superb voicing), my other favorite was the self-help guy. Brilliant performance with the right nuances of malice, laughter, whispering and different accents. Pacing and delivery were spot-on. The quality of the production was excellent.
Story 4 stars. Narration 5 stars.
If you want to try something totally different, something quirky and witty, with awesome, well-developed characters, then I can recommend this.

If I’m entirely honest, hipsters are a bit of a mystery to me. Ironic really, if I was about a decade younger and was slightly better groomed, I rather suspect I might be one (I do enjoy a good beard). From my current perspective however, they are an entirely different species. So for an author to come to the conclusion that hipsters could conceivably be from another planet seems like a completely reasonable suggestion as far as I am concerned.
Moomamu finds humanity more than a little baffling (I can’t say I blame him). In his eyes we are a violent, contrary bunch who just don’t make much in the way of sense. I’d strongly suggest avoiding discussion with him on the purpose of toothbrushes for example. All he really wants to do is get home. The only reason for staying on Earth is our frothy coffee, but if that comes with added potential of a violent demise, he’d much rather just give it a miss and get back to his assorted galactic ponderings.
Now you might be forgiven for thinking “well, Moomamu is odd because he is an alien”. Therein lies the great irony. Moomamu fits into his new hipster life seamlessly. Nobody questions his peculiarities because everyone is more than a little strange themselves. Turns out the rest of the non-extra-terrestrial cast of characters are just as bizarre. There is a serial killer with delusions of grandeur and a penchant for self- improvement. A couple of enigmatic agents who appear to know far more about what is going on than everyone else and a poor lady who has a tendency to spontaneously combust. There is even one poor chap trapped in his own pocket universe on a tube train, destined to exist outside the normal laws of time and space in a parallel universe just out of synch with our own, in rush hour. Odd indeed.
My personal favourite however is Gary the cat. The largely haughty disdain that Gary has for just about everything, with the exception of where his next meal is coming from, seems to perfectly the capture the character of most cats I’ve ever met. This book only confirms what I have long thought; cats view our nonsense in the same way a blue whale would view a mote of dust. We are entirely inconsequential to their grand plan. I feel I can speak on this topic with a certain amount of authority. There are two cats that share my life and they only offer me the time of day when they require sustenance. Strangely, it doesn’t make me love the ignorant sods any less, this may be by some sort of evil design on their part.
Luke Kondor is obviously having a ball writing this series. He turns his critical eye on everything hipster related. The plot explores many different aspects of this faintly peculiar but extremely popular sub-culture. One-man experimental street theatre? Check. Ethnically diverse food wagons? Check. Outlandish facial topiary? Check. Liking things before they are considered cool? Naturally.
There is little denying, and you may have already guessed, that this book is properly strange. Some wonderfully surrealist science fiction with a nice bite of satire; that works for me. I think you just have to let a book like this wash over you. I suspect overthinking it or attempting to understand/explain the plot to others might potentially trigger some sort of localised universal collapse. I advise you just go with it and hope for the best. It’ll all be all right in the end.
The Hipster From Outer Space is published by Hawk & Cleaver and is available now. A sequel is already available, The Hipster Who Fell Through Time if memory serves, and there will be a final book to complete the trilogy. I can only imagine there will be even more mind-bending cosmically in-depth adventures held therein. I reckon it’ll be worthwhile finding out. I do hope that there are more talking cats.

Really enjoyed this book. I enjoyed the language and the characters were full and nicely flawed. Good fantasy read.

To be completely honest, I am on Luke Kondor's e-mail list and received a free copy of this audio book just by being in the right place at the right time. I was not asked to do a review. However, I love to provide feedback to authors and give them honest reviews so that is why I wrote this. Having read the warning on the summary -- I wasn't sure what to expect but I enjoyed this book immensely and would have gladly paid full price for the experience.
First, I want to talk about the humor. Luke Kondor lives in the UK and humor in The Hipster from Outer Space has a very British flavor. Some have compared his works to Douglas Adams and I agree there are similarities in style but they are not the same. Part of that is because they come from the same part of the world. Being an American that enjoys British humor -- I loved it! The humor is fantastic fun and Luke's descriptions of Moomamu The Thinker and the way he processes the world is such a treat! On more than one occasion I found myself laughing out loud or pausing the book to tell my husband about one of the lines. Moomamu and his initial thoughts about dogs are amazing! Also, there's Gary and he is a blast!
Secondly, the themes in this book can be somewhat mature. I understand why the Luke put the warning of "BE WARNED: CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE, SWEARING, AND THE PROTAGONIST IS A BIT OF GIT." following the summary on his amazon page for this book. However, I disagree with the reviews that say the violence is gratuitous. I felt like all of the violence was in the story for a reason. There was more depth to the story and to the violence itself than one would expect from such a humorous book. I won't spoil anything but this story has depth and satire! I enjoyed this book for so many reasons and look forward to rest of the trilogy!
Finally, for the narration. Ian McEuen was a perfect fit for the narration of this book. He does a very good job of giving the characters their own individual presence. This includes different types of accents and subtle changes in the way he emphasizes certain things. I really enjoyed his narration and it really helped me get sucked into the world. His narration added so much to the book -- I am hoping that the rest of the books in this trilogy get made into audio books because I will buy all of them.

This is a good book for something quite different but that should be obvious from the title. This is a quirky, twisted tale of an alien who suddenly finds himself human (rather like the man who awoke to find himself a cock roach as far as diving down the evolutionary ladder). His goal is to get back. Along the way a host of characters are introduced from housewives to homicidal brothers. There is also a new religion afoot as well as a great evil trying to destroy everyone. This book struck me as rather a diamond in the rough as the writing style is hardly well crafted but the story is well told. The things revealed drew me in, yet kept me wondering what would happen next. For those seeking novelty, I recommend this. I gave this 3 stars because of the unevenness of the book, but it still means I liked it.

'The Hipster From Outer Space', written by Luke Kondor, is the first installment in author’s trilogy series that bears the same name – real rollercoaster ride that introduces reader to an appealing leading character that lives within the story made of horror, fantasy and science fiction elements.
The main character is a guy named Gary who, together with his cat, is going to change own life and the whole world around. An ancient space being called Moomamu has awoken on Earth in the body of a hipster in East London and wants to get back to his home. Gary will find himself captured in a story in which there are only two outcomes – eliminate the threat or be killed…
Luke Kondor, award-winning filmmaker and writer, with his novel 'The Hipster From Outer Space' manages to open in a great style new series characterized by the raw style and great pace - starting with the good introduction that will draw the reader completely into the story and then through lot of action, twists and turns leads to the outcome that sets the scene for the future sequels to come.
Also, as previously mentioned there are some graphical violence scenes, though in this case they are an inseparable part of the story, something that only further makes this book compelling and interesting.
Overall, Luke Kondor with 'The Hipster From Outer Space' succeeded in writing very good novel for audience of all ages, combining different genres managing to set the foundation for the continuation of this thrilling ride – hopefully, lasting for a long time.
I was given a copy of this book by the author for the purpose of unbiased review, while all the presented information is based on my impressions.

Alien space entities that can take over bodies. This sounds great for humankind. Luke Kondor's The Hipster From Outer-Space envisions a world where alien beings are responsible for a potential end to all human life on Earth.
To read this, and other book reviews, visit my website: http://makinggoodstories.wordpress.com/.
Moomamu is an ancient space being who has witnessed many different cultures on many different planets. When he wakes up one morning on Earth as a human, he wants nothing more than to get back to his home and away from the perplexing habits of humans. Navigating his way through the world as best he can, he manages to meet Gary the cat, who happens to also be possessed by an alien being. Gary claims that he can help Moomamu get home, but it seems as if Gary is preparing Moomamu to assist in the larger problem facing Earth.
The synopsis of the story was enough to pique my interests into reading the story--not to mention that the title is attention-grabbing, too. The writing was rather well done and I enjoyed Moomamu's perspective and phraseology of the things that we humans do on a daily basis and hardly think about. Kondor weaves together characters who seem to be disparate into a cohesive whole interdependent upon the actions of the others in an easy to read manner. But, if I'm being perfectly honest, my main reaction to this story was: WHHHHHHAAAAAATTTTT?
Overall, I'd give it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.

I'm only at 20% of the book, but i have to say, this is something else. I thought it would be mildly funny and went to the gym while listening to the audio book and i ended up being quite rude with my snorts and giggles. One guy even thought i was laughing at him. :(
So don't listen to this in public places, way too funny, at least for my sense of humor. It is similar to Douglas Adams and perhaps Terry Pratchett, yes, but i think it's even funnier for me as it seems to have more universal jokes that are not related to knowing specific facts (that i don't know).
I'm so happy now! All the stress of homework has turned into excitement :D

I went into this with very little idea of what to expect - and was blown away.
This story has a lot going for it, and tells it in a way that keeps you constantly guessing what's going to happen next. One minute you're following the baffled Moomamu through the human world, the next you're chasing down the A1 from Nottingham with self-help obsessed nut. The writing is witty, the characters have depth. There's very little more I can ask from a book.
This is definitely one that I'll buy in paperback when it's released. Who wouldn't want an angry monkey screaming at them from the bookshelf?

I did not finish this book. I tried a few times, putting it down when I got bored with it, and then picking it back up again to try again. I'm not entirely certain where the fault lies. Some of it, I think, is the rapid switching between characters. None of them were interesting enough on their own to follow their threads, and I never made it far enough for their paths to cross. Also, it was just very bleak. I found very will to recommend any of the characters and their lives were in a downward spiral that didn't even have the virtue of being amusing.

Oh my!
I don't know how to review this except to say it was very enjoyable. Part Sci Fi, part thriller, part mystery and part horror. You have your serial killer, talking animals and twisted aliens. I don't know what else to tell you.

Interesting but difficult to follow
I tried, I really tried. I only made it through the first few chapters before my mind imploded.
This novel reminds me of one I tried reading some time ago (and I mean ago) - I didn't like that authors style of writing either, but I did reread that novel again later and enjoyed it. I will attempt the same thing again with this one.
I will tel you to give it a go - just because the authors style of writing doesn't work for me doesn't mean it won't work for you. Remember, reviews are entirely subjective to the reviewers background.
