You Sexy Thing (book)

Publishers Weekly called the story "clever" and "thoroughly entertaining", praising Rambo for having created credible characters.[1] The Library Journal gave the novel a starred review, lauding it as "delightful [and] action-filled," and "packed with engaging alien species (...) and witty references."[2]

In Locus Online, Liz Bourke compared the novel to Tim Pratt's Axiom trilogy, describing it as "fast (and) zippy" with "some surprisingly substantial emotional heavy lifting under its hood." Bourke also noted the story's "nuanced consideration of responsibility, personal ethics, class, and the nature of art." Adrienne Martini, writing for the same magazine, talked about the allusions the novel makes to other science fiction works, such as Farscape, Star Wars and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Martini goes on to say You Sexy Thing is not "something right on the cutting edge of the genre", but it's a "cozy" story.[3]
