raix's review against another edition
2.0
It's a fun story about miniature robots and the sorts of things you can do with them! Although much of it is spent doing spy work, not exploring the titular bug park (that's ok, there needs to be a plot after all!). There were some issues though, probably because it's pretty old now. Though, I don't know if in 1997 it was still normal to call Asians "orientals", or gawk at the existence of female lawyers. One of the weirder things about this book is that the characters all refer to their pet cat as "it". Why? Does anyone do this in real life? That struck me as the most bizarre.
In the writing side of things, it's ok. I wish the descriptions of the world viewed from miniature size were better and easier to follow. Sometimes I feel like it got wrapped up in describing things and forgot to do so in an eloquent way.
