Wow, book 19. Hard to believe I’ve followed Joe and Skippy this far into the series. And all you really need to know is I’m very much ready for book 20!

This book follows the formula of the others. Joe and Skippy run into a problem that seems hopeless. Skippy says it’s impossible. Joe tries to solve it, and Skippy calls him a dumb monkey. Somehow, Uhtavio Scorandum gets involved, and does some hilarious and sketchy stuff. Eventually, Joe finds a way to do the impossible. Skippy says he hates his life. With the problem solved, everyone is happy… until they discover the unintended consequences of their actions.

What can I say? The formula works. Can’t wait for the next one!
