"Plenty of twists to keep readers guessing. Every Ultraball game is
tightly written with great clarity. This series opener is still an
intriguing hybrid of football and sci-fi with plenty of butt
jokes." -- Kirkus Reviews"Chen's debut delivers a smart and subtle
exploration of socioeconomic inequality. Sf and sports readers
alike will enjoy the futuristic dystopia Chen has created. Fans of
Mike Lupica, Dan Gutman, and Tim Green looking to get their feet
wet in sf should be directed to this series opener."
-- Booklist"Fart jokes and cheesy banter makes this well suited for
a middle school audience." -- School Library Journal
