Reviews
" The Body Scout is the kind of wild, inventive adventure that i'd been searching for. It scratched a special itch: sly and smart, weird and wonderful, all in one package. A little bit Philip K. Dick, and I detect hints of Julio Cortazar too. Lincoln Michel is a wildly talented author and this novel is something special indeed."-- Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling
