Read it recently, somewhat influenced by a post about John Scalzi on the sub, just wanted to share my thoughts and ask what you guys thought.
Minor spoilers ahead.
My opinion about the book wavered as I read it. It went somewhat like this
- Covid setup, cringe
- Oh, secret society, Kaiju, cool
- Why do these guys constantly bitch with each other like they are kids from Stranger Things?
- Chill, everyone is a megachad and bad guys get fucked
- The culmination, meh, nothing original
And then I read the author’s notes about the book and realized that this was my favorite part.

It was a nice quick read with short enough chapters that I could down one on a coffee break. Lot of current day humor that won’t hold up in 20 years though. I’d recommend it to my meme chugging millennial buddies but prob not my mom.
Definitely an easy read. I just wish it was a bit deeper.
