Earthling Jeff Spooner accepts an offer to explore the galaxy with his barber, Ray Scump. The pair are thrown into a non-stop adventure as they embark on a quest to find the fabled Universal Remote – avoiding danger, doom and embarrassing situations as they go.
Aided by two badly-programmed robots and an army of warrior spacehoppers, our heroes duck, dive and try to dodge the biggest threats in the galaxy: Overlord Kelvin of Skragg, the terminally dreary Emo people and Queen Shelley – a bald, cannibalistic Amazon who has a score to settle from way back...
First published in 2008, Kangazang! gained increasing attention which prompted a natural progression into the audio book genre. With a little help from Torchwood’s Claire Cage, Colin Baker uses a multitude of personas and accents to recount the story of Jeff Spooner – an ordinary bloke who, discovering that his local barber is in fact an alien, is taken on a journey across the universe to a land of warrior space hoppers and evil overlords. The intriguing and zany Kangazang! Universe is portrayed perfectly by the actor famous for creating the most flamboyant and colourful of all the Doctors.
Kangazang! is now available in audiobook format as a special edition 3 CD Disc plus bonus DVD available to buy online. The DVD contains a wealth of extras, including Colin Baker discussing his career and love of sci-fi.

Terry Cooper was born in London in 1969, and moved to Wales in 1980. Training as an artist and illustrator, he has worked for film and TV production companies, providing artwork, storyboards and even voiceover work for many years. A two year detour into the world of pop music led to his rap group Best Shot being signed to Warner Music where they toured the UK with East 17 and performed at the Smash HIts Poll Winners Party in Wembley Arena in 1994. In 2003, he embarked on a degree course in Computer Animation at Glamorgan University, and since completing it, he has formed an animation company called Strangetown Animation, based in Cardiff. He has two children, a spacehopper, and a phobia of dogs. Kangazang! is the first in a proposed trilogy of stories that follow the adventures of Jeff Spooner and Ray Scump, and will be available from this website soon. The sequel, entitled, "KANGAZANG! 2: Star Stuff", will be available next year. Stay tuned!
