Review of 'Robots versus slime monsters' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

It was overall amusing and fun. When it tried to get spiritual, the overriding nonsensical and humorous aspects tone that down, which I thought was good. I like the running tension and love – hate relationship between the two main characters finally realizing that they needed each other, but it was a grudging realization.
The different kinds of characters was refreshing! And the refusal of most people to accept magic and the unbelievable was handled in really, the best way could be. It was a lot of fun, and the surprises around every corner maintained its freshness.
Recommended.
