This is the kind of book that makes you miss your train stop and keeps you up late at night, lying to yourself that you'll read just one more chapter. Come dawn, you'll put it down with regret that you're so tired and even more regret that you've finished it.Chu misses a few opportunities—the aliens seem to mostly bond with people of the same sex, which deprives them of some potential humorous insights—but makes up for any absences with an abundance of enjoyable virtues. This is strongly recommended for any reader of action-oriented fiction.
