Satire worked into science fiction or fantasy is even better. The current PC Culture definitely has aspects worth poking a bit of fun at, but this book does it without any subtlety or ingenuity.

Croshaw, Ben. Psychonauts review. 22 August 2007. Quote: "I obviously like the game ... It's something original ... It's genuinely funny ... It's fun!" I was originally recommended this book based on my love of Terry Pratchett, and with that initial expectation I was a bit disappointed. No one, it seems, can equal Pratchett’s whimsical turn of phrase. Unfortunately it’s right around this time that several dozen amorphous beings from another dimension show up in the Lake District to ask for asylum, the general public finds out about the Ministry of Occultism and all the “innocent” invading monsters they’ve been killing over the centuries, and Alison is thrown into the investigation of a magical serial killer. All of which would be bad enough even without the fact that her new partner seems to be completely insane.A strong, creative, and unique story with characters I cared about. More laugh-out-loud funny than The Rook, but without the wordplay and incredible use of language. Less crude and a stronger story than A Dirty Job. Croshaw skewers some low-hanging fruit: cringe-worthy buzz phrases about “cultural identity” and “internalizing hatred”, constant accusations of racism, the cries of “won’t someone think of the CHILDREN”, the idea that we can legislate, threaten, or shame people into being nice/knowing their place. But what really turns every situation into a carnival fun-house on fire isn’t the opposing viewpoints, it’s when everyone is trying to fix a real problem and no one is actually talking to each other. I read the ebook version of this before I bought the audiobook. Since then, I've listened to the audiobook the full way through at least twice. That's how hilarious and well written the book is. I also love Croshaw's narration and his ability for voices is amazing. I'm very glad to have listened to the audio because otherwise I never would've known how to pronounce a lot of the character names.

People in charge call it an institution that provides education and protection. People not in charge call it a torture dungeon. October 2019: The Cleaner – a stealth game where the player diverts suspicion before committing an assassination, whereupon they must clean the room before time runs out.

As if there's some difference between the rest of the world and them in their genetic code that makes them more dangerous than anyone else.

Success!
