Reviews
"Ramon Gil is a writer who treasures his craft." - Tom DeFalco, Writer/Editor"It is an honest pleasure to find not only a science fiction title out there, but one produced by a writer who seems to understand that drama doesn't have to be all dramatic, and humor doesn't have to be all belly-laughs." - Robert Sodaro, The Examiner.com"Clever, funny, a guy who's willing to put his money where his mouth is." - Mike Gold, Comic Mix
