PK

This is a humorous and satirical novel.

Humor isn't about crude parody or simply making people laugh.

It should be clever and knowing, with a touch of carefree wit.

I know how out of place this novel must seem in this era of fantasy that obscures the heavens.

Perhaps I'm an out-of-place person myself.
