Look, I’m a bit hesitant here, but Aardman’s take on Star Wars was great, so fingers crossed!!

Oh no!

I did not know until today how much I needed an Aardman Animation claymation Wedge Antilles in my life.

I really should have been reading other books that I started earlier, but this one was too much fun not to start. Several weeks ago, I watched the Aardman-animated The Pirates! movie and I came away a bit disappointed. I had liked the books in high school, so I looked them up at the library, only to find this book by the same author. The subject matter was really interesting to me—I’ve been fascinated by the social construction of countries since before I knew the language to put it in those terms.
