Query: An unintentionally funny first novel.

The best thing about this book is that it is short. And funny, though I believe the author did not intend it so. Perhaps the most annoying aspect of the book is the fact that it wasn't checked for spelling or grammar. Did you know that in Seattle you can ride a fairy boat to Mercer Island? Wow. I did finish the book, but have to admit I resorted to skimming the last part. Mercifully, the 338 pages of text were printed double-spaced, which made it possible to finish in a few hours, which I believe is more than the plot, the characters, or the "science" was worth. Two thumbs very much down.
