About the Book



"ZaraCorp holds the right to extract unlimited resources from the verdant planet Zarathustra--as long as the planet is certifiably free of native sentients. So when an outback prospector discovers a species of small, appealing bipeds who might well turn out to be intelligent, language-using beings, it's a race to stop the corporation from "eliminating the problem," which is to say, eliminating the Fuzzys--wide-eyed and ridiculously cute, small, and furry--who are as much people as we are"--Back cover



Book Synopsis



From New York Times bestseller and Hugo Award-winner John Scalzi, a trade paperback repackage of his extraordinary retelling of the SF classic Little Fuzzy--now with a new cover!

ZaraCorp holds the right to extract unlimited resources from the verdant planet Zarathustra--as long as the planet is certifiably free of native sentients. So when an outback prospector discovers a species of small, appealing bipeds who might well turn out to be intelligent, language-using beings, it's a race to stop the corporation from "eliminating the problem," which is to say, eliminating the Fuzzies--wide-eyed, ridiculously cute small furry creatures--who are as much people as we are.

Review Quotes




Praise for Fuzzy Nation

"A perfectly executed plot clicks its way to a stunning courtroom showdown in a cathartic finish that will thrill Fuzzy fans old and new." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

"In a genre flooded with bloated epics, it's a real pleasure to read a story like this, as compactly and directly told as a punch to the stomach." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"The perfect novel to...spark a lifelong love affair with science fiction and all it has to say about how we treat one another, how we treat the rest of the universe, and what we do when the circumstances offer us the chance to sell out our integrity for fortune." --BoingBoing

"The insanely cute Fuzzys (Scalzi's deep affection for critters is on full display here) and a real affection for Piper's original material, and you've got a book that can't miss." --BoingBoing

"Scalzi readers as well as Piper fans should enjoy this modern throwback to SF's early years." --Library Journal
