review 1: Welcome to Bumfuck Kansas, 21st-Century Pilgrims in the war on terror. Okay, the actual name of the town is the title of the book, Callisto. If you do not laugh reading this darkly delicious and outright riotous satire, it is because you are too busy banging your head against the wall at how very close the narrative comes to summing up our government's mindset on fighting terror. P.S. You don't fight terror, it fights you.
review 2: A major disappointment. This is the most first-draft-y novel I've read maybe ever. In the author interview, Krol says he wrote this in a torrent after divorcing his wife, and that he felt he was typing as fast as he could while taking dictation from the narrator. It really shows. The plot is an unedited, repetitious, often boring... more mess. All the seams are visible; you can practically hear Krol thinking. less
