A fatuous, entitled story

PJ O'Rourke has always wobbled the line in between wry, Will Rogers witticisms and smug, fatuous, self-indulgence. This book is very little of the former and a whole lot of the latter.
...
This is a very Boomer book. The narcissism, the total abandonment of responsibility, the entitlement, and a complete lack of self-awareness about any of the above.
In terms of American histories, this book is the shrug and giggle of an inebriated, middle-aged wine-mom after she crashed the minivan and killed three people.

Space tanks! It''s about space tanks. pretty good story... about space tanks.
It's not high art, but when does fussy literature feature space tanks.

I really wanted to like this, but it's long, it's dull, Evangeline mopes and whines.
The whole thing could have been a really good, 25-page short story.

It's a series of ghost-stories.
They are decent, but expect no surprises. Everything happens just as you think it is going to.

It's not bad, but the story within a story within a story within a story does not work.
Also, trying to put Lovecraftian horrors in small New England streams just does not work. Cthulhu as a river-trout is not scary.

This is the best of warhammer fiction. Really. Newman understands that the point of this is to just have fun.

This is quite a good book. It's very straightforward in its approach and while Juan Williams has a very particular perspective, he is honest and intelligent although he does avoid certain topics that he didn't doesn't want to include. Such as there are virtually no black militants in the Civil Rights Movement for according to Juan Williams.

Also the recording is plagued with technical errors, it skips very often, especially at the beginning of sentences and at the beginning of chapters.

I have a soft spot for classic science fiction and I'd heard how terrible "Farnham's Freehold" was. I had a couple long flights and figured I'd see if the rumors were true.
...
...
They were.
