Scalzi has a long author’s note at the end where he talks about this book being light like a fun pop song. I agree. There is some tension with a bad guy at the end but overall it’s just a fun book about a guy who gets a job lifting things for an organization that studies and helps kaiju in another dimension. I listened to this book as I am a diehard Wil Wheaton fan and Wil was clearly having a great time. An enjoyable pop song that I’ll come back to again when I need a little pick me up.
