Couldn't we all just read Marvel Zombies instead? From what I've seen of that, it's at least creative.

The most annoying character by far was Stealth, who is basically Batman if Batman were a Victoria's Secret Angel.

That is an awesome, if ridiculous, sentence.

Peter Clines is probably crossing his fingers and praying that Michael Bay will read this book.

Oh, God. People should not publish a story because they think it will get adapted into a movie. A book should stand alone on its own merits first, then get adapted. *facepalm*

Stealth is perfectly realistic, in the sense she is just the sort of character a gamer with little imagination and no understanding of academia would come up with.

It's a pity this book isn't six thousand tons of awesome. You're sure you didn't misread it terribly?

I probably would have thought it was six thousand tons of awesome when I was a rolling double handfuls of six-sided dice and counting BODY and STUN.
