If you like sci-fi, utopian societies or if you are a tech freak you'll love this book! The book loaded with tongue-in-cheek humor (the world needs more of this) Can hardly wait for the sequel. Go Brian!!

Fun, Interesting Read,

This review is from: ZERO CALVIN (Paperback)
This book has page after page of fun, witty science-fiction wrapped up with a believeable future. It is almost like reading Futurama. I found myself laughing out loud several times which caused a problem because I had to explain the situation to my wife. The ending does leave you wondering, "what next". I surely hope Brian comes up with a sequal that is at least as funny comes out with it soon. I want to know what happens. I want a Sony PatientMan! Long live Tang!

Fun & Entertaining From Begining To End,
By A Customer
This review is from: ZERO CALVIN (Paperback)
This book is a quick easy read. My attention was captured from the opening pages to the very end. There was some sarcastic humor on every page that brought out a laugh, giggle, or smirk. Very enjoyable. I am looking forward to the sequel.
