"I absolutely loved this book! The concept has vague Ender's Game similarities but the novel itself is totally unique. It's funny, it's clever, the character is so different but I loved him, and I blew through this book and the novella in two days! It would be a five star book if there weren't an increasing number of typos as I approached the conclusion."
