Awful writing. A simple plot with a moderately likable protagonist who can do no wrong. Whatever the circumstance, Mr. Watts seems to have spent more time preparing than seems possible, or else the rules change.
In a world where anything is possible, nothing is unexpected. Therefor it's not surprising when everything “barely” works out for the best.
The story is shallow and panders to retro-nostalgic pop-culture lovers without doing much work of its own. While I enjoyed the trip down memory lane, I feel anyone could quote and reference 80s pop culture and the story was very, very weak without it as a crutch.
It felt strange without the main characters.. Like half the book was a spinoff.
Still decent though.
