Ranks as one of the best books I ever read

I enjoyed this book immensely. I read it over ten years ago, but it was a memorable book just the same. Also, enjoyed Sentenced to Prizm by the same author.

Alan Dean Foster is the man!

Mr. Foster has an incredible talent to mix sci-fi/ Fantasy with humor. Who else could write about taking a drive through hell!

Excellant, what you expect from ADF- a rattling good yarn.

The interaction between the characters as they realise what is happening to them is facinating. the only weak point in the story I can find is the acceptance that Steven dissappeared and no one really mentioned it, if my child dissappeared with angels I would be a bit upset. If i ever drove to las vegas I would take it with me and be very careful NOT to pick up hitchikers.Still having said that who wants reality to intrude too often. It is the reason to read the authors work. My problem now is I now have lost my copy and cannot get a new one. Publishers should re release his work on a more regular basis.

Enjoyable, imaginative, VERY hard to put down.

Continually interesting, well-written story about your average middle-class family driving a motor home to Las Vegas and becoming involved in a hitchhiker's quest to save the cosmos from chaos. Often quite humorous.

Action and suspense mixed with humor.

Typical Foster yarn with plenty of action and adventure. The charectors are colorfully portrayed as is the scenery.
