Feral Artist Nomad odyssey, part 5: the Ecuador Acquiescence
The plan went kind of sideways. And upside down and inside out, but fun the entire time – and that’s what matters.

This book is a fun treat for any sci-fi fan, or for those who grew up watching old-timey TV shows about an all-American family stranded on an alien planet. :) The premise is simple: a boy, his teen sister, and their dad go missing. Five years later, t ...more |

| Such an amazing book. :) Highly recommended: a hilarious blend of Wall-E, Futurama, and Fallout. Lots of genuine laugh-out-loud moments, and a surprising amount of philosophy. | |

“Donna Woodka from Changing Places put it perfectly: “The Tao is simply logical.

And you’re already there anyway, so what’s the big deal?”

“Mark Alder was a tall black man in his mid-twenties with none of the awkward clumsiness that could sometimes accompany height.”

“You even drilled a hole in it. You know that’s illegal, right? Defacing currency.”
“Well, you’re dating a serious badass,” Mark said. “Committing crimes in the name of love and all that.”

“Prove you’re one of us,” the pilot called. “What’s the password we’re using?”
A password was something the rebels might use to identify themselves out on the battlefield. It would make sense with everyone moving the same gear around. Zak tightened his grip on his pistol and decided.
