Publisher's Weekly Review of Elevator People by Charlotte Laws

 

Charlotte Laws and her book Elevator People

Plot/Idea: 9 out of 10

Originality: 10 out of 10

Prose: 8 out of 10

Character/Execution: 10 out of 10

Overall: 9.25 out of 10

Assessment:

Plot/Idea: Elevator People is Laws's hilariously weird sci-fi novel about the Earthling Extermination Project and the hapless humans who need to put a stop it, lest they lose everything.

Prose: Laws's prose is crisp and her descriptions dynamic, and she wastes no time showing readers what they're in for.

Originality: Elevator People is a true original with wondrous world-building, featuring odd aliens, Cruelty Quotient scores, cameos by Hitler and Charles Manson, and the Charity Eight doing the absolute best they can.

Character/Execution: Laws has stuffed her book with an array of delightfully original characters. Between the elevator people, the Council of the Universe, the Charity Eight, and everyone and everything in between, this is a hilariously offbeat book genre lovers will enjoy.
