Only Afraid of Nothing

Rate this book
Space shows no mercy, and outer space has never heard of it.

After surviving a confusing episode, Wolfgang befriends an over sedated human-ish alien who’s looking to leave this retched, green-tiled nightmare. Discovering that she was not your average patient, they flee the psych ward to the stars since Zenu was late for work. Nothing goes as smoothly as he imagines, as he finds himself earning a foolishly manic reputation and earning a criminal status within minutes of being off planet. They steal a second chance by taking up the responsibility of returning Zenu’s kidnapped boss. They travel from port to bar to death sentence on a haphazard journey, if only they could only stay on course long enough to get the job done.

The team builds on, and the messes worsen, all the while tempting fate in a universe of zero-degree absolutes. Functioning on some unseeable absurdity, you may realize how fickle relationships can be where getting sucked into the blackness to be forgotten is at moments a chipped windscreen away. How might these spirits ever survive gallivanting around the wildest places inside and sort of outside of existence?

Only Afraid of Nothing by Willem Indigo is a sci-fi adventure that follows Wolfgang, a patient in the psychiatric ward of a hospital, who befriends Zenu, a human-like extraterrestrial. As she gets acquainted with Wolfgang and wins his trust, she needs his help to leave the planet to rescue Zenu’s kidnapped boss. This unexpected journey gives Wolfgang a new adventure, just when he fears his life has no hope, taking strange twists and turns along the way.

As Wolfgang dives further into Zenu’s world of shocking secrets, he is thrown into a quest of epic proportions where he must race against space and time. Both characters quickly become unlikely heroes who must rely on each other. Wolfgang and Zenu become an unusual yet courageous team that aims to save Zenu’s boss from a horrific fate.

I found the book fast-paced, exciting and unique in its writing style and plot development. I enjoyed the flow of the story and how the heroic team took an exciting journey that required bravery and a sense of thrill. It’s a great tale that’s not only fast-paced but fun and light-hearted at times. While I felt the story could have been a bit more suspenseful, the flow was consistent and intriguing to read.

The character development is what really makes this story stand out. Wolfgang, Zenu, and the crew they acquire along their journey are all distinct. Their personalities and quarks come through and keep readers guessing as to what they will say or do next, especially as they keep winding up in trouble. The aliens they battle and deal with are just as creative and entertaining.

Only Afraid of Nothing by Willem Indigo is an original science fiction adventure. The characters and thrilling storyline make for a suspenseful read as they take you through outer space where anything that could go wrong for them does.

🥀The book "Only Afraid of Nothing" is penned by the author Willem Indigo. The plot begins with Dave Von Wolfgang who is an author by profession and nowadays doing over a hundred miles an hour down a Californian turnpike in a snatched car listening to Led Zeppelin on the radio. He helps an over-sedated humanish alien who is looking for an escape from this hell.

🥀They both run to the stars once they get to know that Zenu hasn’t returned. As the plot progresses they grab a dual shot by taking on the duty of returning Zenu’s abducted boss. They drive from one area to another one but can they be able to execute it on time before putting anyone's life in danger?

🥀Go over the book and know it all by yourselves. This story is highly intriguing & amazingly depicted. A great combination of crime thriller mystery and apprehension. The diction used is easy, and simple with incredible narration.

🥀The cover of the book is wonderful with a tint of eagerness to it and does justice to the plot of the book. The book is nail-biting with goose-bumping narration. It is a page-turner for sure and the author has made an effort to retain the interest on every page of the book that will not allow you to put the book down till you complete it.

🥀The twists and turns in the book will keep you on the edge of your heart throughout the book. A wonderful job is done by the author to make it so engaging and interesting to read that you can't help but stay for the subsequent scene to unwrap.

Only Afraid of Nothing penned by the author Willem Indigo is a science fiction fantasy novel. Dave Von Wolfgang is one of the main characters of the story. He was bored of the psych ward so he befriends Zenu, a humanoid alien.

Commander Jatax Flurglesnatch is Zenu's boss. He was kidnapped. Wolfgang and Zenu are determined to rescue the commander. Zenu is quite smart and I am impressed by her character. On the other hand, Wolfgang is called a lunatic. Read this story to know what all chaos the duo will create.

The pace of the story is fast and I wasn't bored anytime while reading this book. The cover photo of the book is nice. The storyline is interesting and there is so much action in the story. I appreciate the vivid imagination of the author in creating this fantasy world. The story will keep you on the edge of the seat. Go for it without any second thoughts.
