A review by weirdtea
Pax Titanus by Tom Lucas
3.0
I haven't read much bizarro fiction, so I suspect my sensibilities might be a bit fussier and more delicate than many long-time fans of the genre. There was too much scatological humor for me to say I truly loved the book. However, I had a very good time reading it.
It made me laugh out loud more than once. I loved the main character, the sports commentator duo (especially the brain in a jar), and the lovely giant cephalopod. Really, there are awesome aliens, worlds, and battles throughout the book. It blasts by.
There's wicked wit and satire to be found in this story. There's also real heart too. I admire a tale that can combine ridiculously fun action with some emotional depth. It's all over the top...gigantic fun.
I'll be checking out more from this author and from the genre.
