Year Zero

What a great concept for a book! It combines a “first contact” storyline with an underdog civilization vs the unimaginably vast intergalactic civilization storyline as well. Then it throws in the absurdity of the American legal system and shakes them all up. Doing this and ending up with an interesting story is quite the feat.

This isn't a deep book, but if you, like me, enjoy a light and fun read, this is worth picking up.
