About this deal

From Scalzi’s perspective, the clothes do not make the man – nor does the body or the gender or the age or many other things. I really think that part needs added to this book, it's very hard to figure out what's going on without it. Apparently Scalzi's style, confident cleverness and the ability to integrate humor and seriousness in the way that seems juuuust right works for me quite well. Many people recover completely but some are left in a situation where they are aware but unable to move.

With Lock Book, you not only create precise technical flat roof sketches for rope safety systems, anchor points, guard rails or ladder systems. Since Wil Wheaton is the narrator for the book I just assumed that Chris was male for most of the book until I realized that maybe wasn’t the case at all.This way the fast-talking, smart plotting and superb banter can have their full effect on the reader. I just know he's going to take me somewhere, and I trust that he's going to make the ride a pleasant one. There is a lot of action, and a lot of fictional science to try and grasp but the whole is an intriguing book which I enjoyed very much.

But more disturbingly I realised that I didn't really care where this was going because I hadn't really become invested in the outcome for any of the characters. Chris Shane's gender is never identified – an ingenious decision and one that fits right in with Scalzi’s viewpoint re what actually makes a person a person. I’ve been a big fan of his ever since I read Old Man’s War, and that’s also when I started associating his work with light, humorous sci-fi that’s also accessible and not too overwhelming for someone like me, who is predominantly a fantasy reader and not always in the mood for hard science fiction or heavy techno-jargon. John Scalzi, having declared his absolute boredom with biographies, disappeared in a puff of glitter and lilac scent. Fire up a series of gory pictures or put 'It's a small World' on repeating loop until the victim paid to make it stop.Add to all this a murder mystery, even more detail on those locked-in, and you have a fabulously entertaining story which Will Wheaton did a great job in narrating. Lock-in' is a rare but real syndrome that can occur following brain injury, poisoning or brainstem stroke.
