From New York Times bestseller and Hugo Award-winner John Scalzi, an extraordinary retelling of the SF classic Little Fuzzy
ZaraCorp holds the right to extract unlimited resources from the verdant planet Zarathustra―as long as the planet is certifiably free of native sentients.
So when an outback prospector discovers a species of small, appealing bipeds who might well turn out to be intelligent, language-using beings, it's a race to stop the corporation from "eliminating the problem," which is to say, eliminating the Fuzzies―wide-eyed and ridiculously cute small, and furry―who are as much people as we are.
I liked the idea of "rebooting" a classic that has aged elements, but I was a bit wary because Wil Wheaton annoys me and he was narrating the book.
I did enjoy it a lot, but there were a few moments of weird antagonising that I didn't understand, but largely I enjoyed it. After reading a few reviews that compare this and the original, I want to read the original too.
