4.5 I really enjoyed this one. Plus it takes place in Quabbin, which is right nearby.

the last quarter is hardly readable, or else it would have been a 5 from bears

2 for me. SK and aliens just don’t mix well.

3.5 would have given it a 4, but the ending was terrible.

I think I see one more "0" in the upcoming five or so brackets left. But perhaps it will be a 1. Depends on my mood at the time.

This is the book I was referring to. Nothing about this book interested me. The plot was all over the map. I don't think I quite grokked the whole shit-weasel, byrus, gray relationship (and I don't care enough to go back to it)--and then bring in the military? Lame-o. I also saw Duddits as a wannabe Tom Cullen re-hash FAIL. Sad on all levels.

Agreed. The novel started strong, and then deviated into the absurd. 3.
