I got this book on the Kindle market during a sale when it was 99 cents. This is one of the first books I have read on an e-reader and at first I was hesitant at Kindles, but it was a great experience.
First I got to say, definitely worth the full price!
Second, this book is everything I wanted at the right time – well-developed characters, great humor (I love the one liners), and a plot that held my interest. I think what hooked me into this book was the characters and the humor. Cyril must be the most annoyingly well-written character I have come across since Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye. Every time he appeared and talked in the book, I wanted to pull my hair out!!! Definitely a sign of a good writer.
Maybe it was the timing – I read a couple of serious/more dry classics before picking up this one (Emma, Pablo Neruda, Heart of Darkness) – and the humor and writing style simply made me happy. I found myself smiling throughout the novel and laughing out loud on occasion. Further, I love scifi and the technology in the book / names of aliens / alien characteristics were hilarious! To Cure the Humans! was a fun read!
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys fun and humorous books in general. You do not need to be in love with scifi to enjoy this one!

To Cure The Humans! (English Edition) Kindle版
After wrecking his car on the way to work, Dr. Benjamin Cotter's day gets worse when he is abducted by Cyril, an alien bounty hunter. Cyril has landed on Earth in pursuit of Peter, a resourceful fugitive alien who just happens to possess a device (the BAT) than can cure any disease in any species.
When Peter innocently uses the BAT on humans, he draws the wrath of dangerous and powerful adversaries - a pharmaceutical start up, a major health insurance corporation, and a super-secret governmental agency. Their attempts to capture Peter and steal the BAT are thwarted when Peter receives help from a cynical liberal-arts major administrative assistant and her retired steel-worker father. When Dr. Cotter escapes Cyril's clutches, he joins forces with Peter. But in the end it takes a more powerful force to save the BAT - and to cure the humans!

商品の説明
著者について
Douglas Lewis grew up in Ft. Worth, Texas, where his sense of humor was honed by being raised in a middle-class family, attending public schools, and being told at a young age that his hometown was #3 on the list of Soviet nuclear targets. He was first published in high school, where his dark, ironic, angsty poetry was included in the school's yearly literary magazine. Flush with royalty money, he attended Texas Christian University, where he graduated in 1984 with a degree in biology, a minor in philosophy, and unwarranted optimism. Four years later, Douglas graduated from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston - internationally recognized as a medical school with a name that seems a bit too wordy. For well over four years, he has written and performed stand up comedy. By 2012, his three children had more-or-less reached adulthood and, taking advantage of the time he used to spend fielding calls from upset school administrators, he began writing To Cure the Humans. He lives and works in Austin, Texas, where he can still occasionally be found onstage performing stand up, when they let him.

I'm a bit biased as I have been friends with the author since the 6th grade, which caused me to purchase this book. It did not cause me to read it all the way through. It is a fun read. Not Tolstoy, but then Doug is still alive.

Human absurdity at its best..

Human absurdity at its best...or at its worst? This story shows us that being part of the human race is a comedy of errors and quite entertaining for the extraterrestrials that may fancy a visit to our blue planet. Are the aliens our worst enemy? Or are we doomed to destroy ourselves? Great book!

Equally very funny and articulate. You can read this on several levels and enjoy it thoroughly. I hope he has time to write a sequel!

What a great book! Lots of action while being hilariously funny. Flirts with the absurd without slipping into stupidity. I laughed all the way through.
Definitely recommended!
