Very nice twist to alien invasion, full of interesting characters, and with unconventional main character. Brings to question people's beliefs and views, and reflects on current situation in world.

Would make an amazing movie!

Not one I would probably choose to read, but good entertainment. Very nice sci-fi satire on modern America.

The plot does meander a little bit, but I loved the narration and the naive protagonist Diego.



Really enjoyed listening to this book

A bit of a weird one here with multiple agents from multiple parallel universe turning up to convert/subsume this Earth. All done very tongue-in-cheek, and while I wasn't enjoying it that much to start with, by the end it turned into a fun romp and I had a blast with it. Definitely benefitted from listening over a couple of days.

A weird one, and a grower!

I don't understand the bad reviews on here. I found this book interesting and enjoyable. A light-hearted exploration into all the confusion aided, ironically, by so much information! It reminds me of Socrates view on the fragility of democracy: that it leaves us open to selfish individuals who gain power and wealth by using delucive inticement and flattery to gain support. What a great way for Aliens to invade our world! Hopefully, like Diego, we will all find our way through...

Brilliant!
