A must-read for those following the series, but not a good starting introduction to it. Everything I love about the series is here - the humor, the repartee, the pop culture and mythological references, you name it. Atticus even tells the story of how he came to know how to make ImmortaliTea.

Extremely difficult, even for pop culture junkies! (1 more)
Very little in the box
A good time filler at board game parties before the real games start just not one that people would request or play through the night. Still a good party game if you can find it second-hand somewhere

Promising concept buried under clumsy craftsmanship
A great concept that should in theory be catnip to an 80s kid such as myself. However this is to pop culture junkies what Fifty Shades of Gray was to S&M enthusiasts: poorly written, drawn out fan fiction that is in dire need of a more competent editor.
The 80s pop culture references are so clumsily laid on, they lose any fun they may have held for me after the first chapter.
Sure, the author has done his research, but this reads as if it was written by a machine trying to approximate human emotion and interaction; technical pitches for gadgets yet to be commissioned in place of wit, story and heart.
Very disappointing.

Oct 1, 2017
This is the third time we've reviewed this game, on each occasion a more feature-packed and improved iteration. Despite its 2010 roots - and pop culture references to match that time - it stands up extremely well

Sci-fi, Humour and Bob
One of the first Audible books I listened to. Made short work of my commute and I was hooked after 5 minutes.
Amazing story concept of Bob Prime and his copies alwith their differing personalities, all set in the future with brilliant Star Trek, Simpsons and current pop culture references.
Impossible to put down

Excellent acting
Brilliant soundtrack
Iconic 80s coming of age film
I've loved this film since I can remember - Broderick is perfect in it, and it's spawned so many pop culture references as a result I can't even count. Funny, stylish, and cool. When you're binging John Hughes films, finish strong with this one.
