Thanks to Tor Books for the free copy of this book.
- Scalzi brings his signature wit and smarts to a completely off the wall premise in WHEN THE MOON HITS YOUR EYE, and it’s a total delight.
- The book is structured WORLD WAR Z style, with each chapter peeking in on different characters from different positions in society and power and seeing how they deal with this weirdness.
- It’s at times quite poignant, and you really feel for these characters who find themselves facing their mortality. At the same time, Scalzi also manages to get in some good hits on billionaires, bankers, and the other villains of our actual reality.
