I finished it as a hate read, hilarious for all the wrong reasons. Just a packet of clichés wrapped around nerd nostalgia. I absolutely lost it when a chapter was literally just reciting an 80s movie word for word. 🤣
I know it though Mike Nelson’s bookclub podcast. It was funny hearing him relieved not to have been mentioned as an important piece of 80’s pop culture.
I know someone who’s whole identity is that he never grew up after the 80s. He was insufferable in that lead up to that movie.
That’s a fine opinion to have, but it doesn’t justify leaving out the coolest parts of the book, or ruining Art3mis’s character, or changing Shoto’s name.
The source material wasn’t good in the first place.
