2023/066: Starter Villain — John Scalzi

WE HAVE TOO MANY CATS IN TOO MANY HIGH PLACES.
"So you're not just spying on villains," I said.
IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER YOU CONSIDER THE RESIDENTS OF THE WHITE HOUSE AND 10 DOWNING STREET VILLAINS. [loc. 2976]

A splendidly cheering and tightly-plotted tale of typing cats (based on Mary Robinette Kowal's Elsie), interspecies cooperation, international villainy, and the importance of unionisation. I am already looking forward to rereading this for the full review.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the advance review copy, in exchange for the full honest review which'll be appearing nearer UK publication date (21 SEP 2023).
