"With a plot that starts out as the rough life of a young agent in Hollywood and rapidly metamorphoses into B-movie territory as a remarkably intelligent first-contact yarn, this book is absurd, funny, and satirically perceptive." --Booklist on Agent to the Stars "If Stephen King were to try his hand at science fiction, he'd be lucky to be half as entertaining as John Scalzi." --Dallas Morning News on The Ghost Brigades
