Review: Edger by David Beem, performed by Vikas Adam

Audiobook cover for Edger, depicting multiple characters like a karate-posing man, a woman's long legs while she is holding a gun, a cow, a football player, a disco ball, all on yellow background.

Ok, let’s get this out of the way from the beginning. Edger by David Beem is like nothing else that I listened to before, and I experienced over 1,200 audiobooks in my life so far! The closest thing it resembles is The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, but Edger is even more of a hoot than that one.

Well, I guess that’s what happens when our hero is a dork who can tap powers beyond this world and he has to work with or against two rival Cluck-n-Pray gangs, an evil cow, a Green Bay Defensive Tackle, rifle-toting assassins – and a pair of stoners, also addicted to Twitter.

The story is absolutely nuts, with insanely colorful characters, twists, turns, and at least 60 laugh out loud moments a minute.

The audiobook version of Edger is brought to life by award-winning actor, voice-over artist and narrator Vikas Adam. He brings his award-worthy A-Game to the recording booth, once again, and delivers one of the most immersive, hilarious and expansive listening experiences that I heard in a long time. He reads, he acts, he switches voices, accents and genders seamlessly and with style, keeping the action going and the laughs coming.

Really, I don’t think that I want to find out how long this recording took, as I’m sure that not even Vikas Adam could record all of this with a straight face.

Bravo to the the author and the narrator for such a fantastic production!
