Ensign Andrew Dahl has just been assigned to the Universal Union Capital Ship
|
||
|
|
Intrepid, flagship of the Universal Union since the year 2456. It’s a prestige
|
||
|
|
posting, and Andrew is thrilled all the more to be assigned to the ship’s
|
||
|
|
Xenobiology laboratory.</p>

<p>There are two simple words to describe this book: Galaxy Quest.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>And then, they aren't.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"It's complicated", are some characters in the book say over and over again.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>But the first part is. And it's too damn hilarious -- if you're a Star Trek
|
||
|
|
fan, that is. Or some of the lesser sci-fi series.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>But the story picks up every absurd psedo-science and plot twist from the
|
||
|
|
series and extrapolates to the silliest level possible. I can't remember the
|
||
|
|
last time a book made me laugh.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>It's silly. It's funny. It's the Galaxy Quest for every sci-fi series in the
|
||
|
|
planet.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>And, then, after the curtains close... It goes into a deep, touching story
|
||
|
|
about... life, basically. You think you're done, but then it gets deeper and
|
||
|
|
serious and... touching, basically.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. And my reading statuses for this book proves
|
||
|
|
it.</p>
