   The most
enjoyable science fiction novel I have read in several years

Rarity from the Hollow by Robert Eggleton is the most
enjoyable science fiction novel I have read in several years. Who could think
of an intergalactic handbook for entrepreneurs? Who could turn a tree-hugger
into a paranormal event of death-defying significance? Who could create
characters so believable, so funny, so astonishingly human (and not)?

Robert Eggleton, that’s who. 

I put this book on my IPhone, and it
followed me everywhere for several days. Strangers smiled politely at my unexpected
laughter in the men’s room toilet stall. They looked away as I emerged, waving
the IPhone at them as if it might explain something significant.

Oddly, the novel explains a great deal
that has become significant in our society. Rarity from the Hollow is satire at
its best and highest level. It is a psychological thriller, true to traits of
mankind (and other species). It is an animal rights dissertation (you will
laugh when you understand why I write that). It celebrates the vilest insect on
earth (make that Universe).

The characters created by Robert
Eggleton will bug your brain long after you smoke, uh, read the final page.
Thanks for the laughs, the serious thoughts, the absolute wonder of your mind,
Mr. Eggleton. A truly magnificent job.

	"Rarity from the Hollow is an original, interesting, naughty story of a backwoods girl, who saves the Universe, in her fashion. Not for the prudish." -- Piers Anthony, N.Y. Times Best Selling Author

	...I can’t really get into how Lacy Dawn is expected to save the universe, nor what she’s supposed to save it from, since a large portion of the book is occupied with figuring out those two pieces of information. I will say that the book drew me in well enough that I really wanted to know how they would pull it off, and I enjoyed the payoff. -- http://www.errantdreams.com/2015/05/review-rarity-from-the-hollow-robert-eggleton/ - http://www.errantdreams.com/2015/05/review-rarity-from-the-hollow-robert-eggleton/
