Scenes of Strangeness by Philip Chen
A few of the cartoons were funny, but most fell a bit flat.
This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
I got this as part of the member review program. I am torn on this one. It had lots of action and a good plot, but I got distracted by too many (IMO) unimportant details and it seemed like the book finished with no resolution. I may just not have been in the right frame of mind for this type of book, so will have to give it another read at a later date.
I was completely and fully wrapped up in awe with this one. The plot of this book will grab you by your very own fears. The only complaint I have is the characters came in to quick. Otherwise this is one of the best I have read yet.

Received from member giveaway.
Really enjoyed this, although I agree with some of the other comments in particular the almost obsessive need to describe somethings in far too much detail, mainly weapons.
The story line was great (although it rang bells and I have yet to look into what it reminded me of), in general it was well told and I liked the characters, perhaps more could have been made of the central ones.
All in all a good read, linked together over the years very well and I hope there will be more. Next time though, please put in more substance and less unnecessary detail.
Thank you for the book.… (more)
