This is my first book from this author and I was not disappointed. It was creative and had quite a bit of humor in it. The book felt like it was geared towards folks born in the 80s and early 90s time frame as many of the references used are related to movies during those days. I felt that part way through the book their were to many coincidences occurring, but while I continued to read many items were explained and the connections clicked for me. I gave the book 4 stars as some of the characters were a little to accepting of events going on that a regular individual would still ask some basic questions about. Other than that the world building was awesome, and it was an enjoyable read.
