Little Fuzzy

It took me five years to follow John Scalzi's advice and read this, but I'm so glad I kept it in mind. I do think that [b:Fuzzy Nation 9647532 Fuzzy Nation John Scalzi https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1316132345s/9647532.jpg 18280046] runs with the ideas with a little more success, but this is so charming, it really should be read for its own merits. Just the descriptions of Jack's interactions with the Fuzzies are worth it. Sure, the courtroom logistics are as tortured and silly as any Hollywood has ever turned out, and the “far future” is quaintly outdated, with baked-in sexism and amusingly analog technology. There are a few too many characters to easily keep track of. But the ones who stand out are so lovable and clever, it's well worth paging back once in a while to track whether a minor player is Company or Government aligned, etc.Check this out - it's a quick read, and it's full of wonderful characters and concepts.
