Review: Incredibly Entertaining...

Part B-movie and mostly satire with a heavy dose of subtle sarcasm, this story has a nicely coherent and somewhat more complex plot than you might think. It's hilarious for the half-hour or so it takes to read it.As promised, it does indeed give us aliens and zombies, as well as vampires and humans all jumbled up together in a giant mess. I rolled my eyes at some parts (okay, several), but really, you can't help but be pulled into the adventure. There's even an obligatory romance of sorts. Is there a happily ever after? Sort of. And not.If you need to get over a rough work day or just want to escape reality and embrace the absurd for a little while, grab your favorite teddy bear, a fermented beverage and this short story for a quick head trip that will leave you dazed, but not necessarily confused.As a point of disclaimer, I am digitally acquainted with Ford, and thus unabashedly biased because I like the guy. I'm eagerly waiting for his next book...
