Review Summaries
"Bill, a very stupid grunt gets conscripted as a very small cog in the Emporers war machine.
An absurd take on the science fiction war -from the point of view in the smallest part of the place - very funny, with lots of sly sideswipes at other authors\pieces of work."
Andrew Banks, Resident Harry Harrison Scholar
"This is a parody of futuristic military regimes. Bill, an ordinary farmer, is drafted into the army and conditioned to be a fighting grunt. Everyone is out to get everyone else, and when Bill accidently breaks an obscure rule he gets in trouble too, and goes on the run."
Steve, Resident Harry Harrison Scholar
