Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Robotic Edition (adapted ∙ parody)

As an original Kickstarter supporter of this book, it pains me to rate this book so poorly, but the readability is such an issue, so I must. At a minimum, every book should be readable before it is anything else. I had endure too much to make my way through this. The type design is at fault: left justified, ragged right; Georgia face (a screen font, probably not the best choice for print); inconsistent image margins; word-processor-sized text margins. I'm quite sorry to say this seems like it was designed by an amateur newletterist or a bad magazine art director.

The introduction, text, and illustrations, however, are absolutely amazing. The binding is like that of a textbook: very nice. If this book were ever reprinted with improvements show more to its typography, I would rate it no less than five stars. I would probably even recommend it over Mr. Clemens original text as the satirical humor of its creators is consistent with his own. show less

You know what would make this boob better is if it was about zombies instead

I'm just putting this here for posterity. It was originally spread out through the comments in Susanna's review, where we were fucking with the "author" of this thing. ("This thing" is a robotic version of Huck Finn where they've replaced the word "nigger" with "robot" to make a point about...robot discrimination I guess?) Feel free to add your own zombie classic in the comments! It's fun! show less
