"This book has feral fridges in it seriously what else do you want? Oh yeah and the plot is great. Although I'm not convinced the fridges were actually necessary." — Jasmine (4 out of 5 stars)

“Cleverly written.”
" Simply put, Tim Scott tries to be Douglas Adams but in a run-down city in the future and with a plot that was confusing and left me disconnected from the characters. I would recommend this book to no one. "
" a silly douglas adams-like detective story set in seattle. "
" This book is worth reading purely for the entertaining fridges. They are escaped! I love them! Who needs more than wild fridges to make a novel work? "
" I didn't love this book. Sorry. It had elements of some of the great sci-fi books, but, was not richly textured enough. It was however, a very quick read. "
" This book was bizzare. Truly bizzare. But not in a bad way. "
" Overly rich with metaphors. "
" Amusing but I always felt like I was missing something. It was 1984 mixed with Hitchhikers Guide which is two of my favorite books, so in theory I should love this book. Sadly, I did not. "
" A fairly mediocre novel with a few bright spots. "
" Who can resist intelligent major appliances? "
" A rare attempt into the world of Sci-Fi Comedy which sadly falls short. I thought his first book was better. I found this one to be choppy with all these little short chapters. It reminded me a little of Douglas Adams. I believe I read that he wrote it while commuting which explains alot. "
