I thought it was poorly written, too. Give it 5/10.

Leaving the LAV was way too dumb for the group to do. The bridge toll was outrageous - Ryan should have shot the guy just for asking.

The interaction between the 'companions' in this book runs from the warm & fuzzy crap at the first town to dumb action movie dialogue. This author would be better off reading the previous books rather than watching the Lifetime channels and Rush Hour movie reruns.

The mutie lizardmen in the lake were very nostalgic. Very 50's sci-fi. This episode of the book could have been developed better and more sensibly. Jak's recovery is nothing short of miraculous. Kristy's solution would have probably killed the Waukee ville, too. Just thoughtless writing.

I guess you missed that you could click on the THIS at the end of the first major paragraph in my long post above?

You're an evil, evil man.

The summary is up on the wiki, for anyone who would rather read that.

Edit (to save a post): Looks like I was wrong - John Helfers wrote this. Nice to see new blood.
