Okay I'll just sit over here DYING for a sequel while you write all your other standalones, Mr. Korman.
This book wasn't nearly as character-driven as some of his novels—a lot more plot and adventure than emotion and character development—and for that reason it's not one of my favorites. But it had a very satisfying climax (except I didn't want it to end) and I grinned a lot in the last couple chapters. I'd recommend it to anyone who prefers a more lighthearted breeze of a read. It's reminiscent of his earlier books, I'd say, although heavier on the mystery than it is on the humor.
