“Anyone who has been caught in the crash of the bubble, who has ever been forced to read Lacan, or who can simply laugh at one's own failings, will be cheering Cal on through his gun-waving adventure.” -- The Critical Flame: A Journal of Literature & Culture.
“...a fun thrill ride that is quick to develop and sure to satisfy a hungry mind.
