The Last Adventure of Constance Verity by A. Lee Martinez
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What the heck is wrong with me? I set aside this A. Lee Martinez for far, far too long. And I didn't even have a good excuse except that I wanted to get more of the books published so I could read them all together. Silly.

So, I had just as much fun with this one as I did with Emperor Mollusk and all the rest. The humor is always fantastic. So self-and-genre aware. It's tropetastic. And how it plays with and skewers everything is exactly the charm I love to have in anything humorous.

Constance is the ultimate nick-of-time hero who just wanted to give it all up to have a little normalcy. An old trope also played to perfection. Because we know that everything will always go wrong, and it'll take her best friend and frenemies along with her.

I think it's a great SF/Action UF that tickles all the right spots. :)
