Slowly though, the flavour transitions into a more serious, meta-narrative quest' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?'Satirical without being mean or mocking, and it is extremely, laugh out loud funny.But rather than taking the easy way out, Mr Scalzi slowly takes the story in a very meta direction, but in doing so turns the story into something real and thought-provoking' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?'I fell in love with all of the characters, their plight, and the plot, all equally . . . What fantastic fun this book was!' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
