The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi

The novel “The Kaiju Preservation Society” by John Scalzi was published for the first time in 2022.

Jamie Gray works for a startup that delivers food through an app but when the pandemic begins, he finds himself substantially demoted, as he’s given the choice between being fired and continuing to work for the company but only as a rider.

A delivery to Tom Stevens, an old acquaintance of Jamie’s, turns into a job offer, as Tom works for an animal rights organization that is looking for someone to hire for a job. The terms of the job are vague but Jamie accepts the offer and discovers that the animals to protect are gigantic creatures that live on a parallel Earth.
