Pros & Cons

Pros

The dispatcher is a detective story set in a strange near future. John scalzi explores these questions with great little noir novella. The action is fast-paced and the future believable.

Zachary quinto (spock 2. Does an excellent job narrating this novella. The audiobook is free for the next couple of weeks. My first audible.

It's short but thorough, with a well-developed main character. Thought-provoking enough that after the first half i couldn't wait to talk to my husband about it. A fantastic story.



Cons

The dispatcher is a short, lazy, underdeveloped rush job based on a silly premise that never rises to the level of the work for which scalzi is best known.
