The Kaiju Protection Society: Ch 1-10

Ch 1 
Narrator works at a place called fudmud.  But he gets laid off.  It's the beginning of the pandemic and things are bleak.  Narrator is jobless and his room mates are talking about moving back home.

Ch 2
Narrator is now working as a delivery person for fudmud.  He delivers to a guy he knows who offers him a job working with large animals cause he needs a last minute replacement for a guy that got covid.

Ch 3
Narrator goes to the job interview and just says yes to everything.   His situation in New York is fucked so anything seems preferable.  He will be some where far away and he will have no contact with the outside world for months.  He's given a train ticket to the Baltimore Airport.   Everywhere is Baltimore  

Ch 4
They are flying to Greenland.   Seven hours and some details later they are in a jungle with a giant flying lizard.  Welcome to the kaiju preservation society. 

Ch 5

The kaiju live on earth in an alternate universe.  They  are attracted to nuclear power.  nuclear explosions are what open up the path to.the other earth.  Nuclear testing in the fifties resulted in a Godzilla esque monster coming over to our world.  Ever since the KPS has been responsible for keeping Kaiju from coming over to our world and to stop.people from going over to the Kaiju world.

Ch 6
They go somewhere.  Their means of transportation is a durigible made of some fancy alternate universe wood and kaiju hide.  As they are trying to go somewhere they kinda get involved in a Kaiju fight.  one of the Kaiju picks up a chunk of dirt the size of a city block to throw at the.other one amd it hits the durigable and they're all amazed its still in one piece.

Ch 7
They get to somewhere and have to wear wierd gloves and hats to deal with the bugs.  But even so, they still bite your face.  They make it to the camp where the departing red team is partying.  Narrator is on the gold team.  The blue team is holding down the fort as red and gold can let their hair down.  They do a 6 month shift then they get 3 months off.  There's a brief intro cause the introer is a little drunk.  Work starts tomorrow at 9 am.  They go to their beds and the previous occupant has left a long letter ✉️ for Narrator. It's a good bye letter.  This is their last tour.  They wanna spend some significant time in the real world.

Ch 8

At orientation everyone gets HUGE binders documenting the difference between our world and this one and operational duties and what not.  Narrator finds it all fascinating.  Others are real hot to trot on making contact with a Kaiju.  Foreshadowing,  they do that tomorrow.

Ch 9
Thus far narrator's job has been described as lifting things.  There's an app that tells him where to go and who to ask what to lift.  Today we're lifting canisters of Kaiju pheromones to a helicopter 🚁.   The pilot tells them they're coming with.  There's two Kaiju they are trying to get to mate.  Kaiju are kinda like big dumb pandas and you gotta trick them into mating to save their species.  Scientist guy has to observe and narrator has to push the button to release the gas.

Ch 10
They get to the kaiju in question and it's  asleep.  They whack it in the "eye" a couple times to wake it up.  It works and they spray the pheromones on it.  This seems to work as due to eye dilation They can tell he's not trying to kill them.  They make their way to the female kaiju and spray them with pheromones and it is on.  This book is sexy.
