Most Bizarro books are fun-sized novellas of weird tales, often told in very strange settings, with characters that aren't very well fleshed out. The Cheat Code for God Mode isn't an exception. Andy de Fonseca, herself a gamer geek, writes a bit of a Mary Sue tale about a pair of gamer friends who discover a cheat code for a cult classic game and end up uncovering a dangerous secret. This is a fun tale and her protagonist is sweet, smart and sympathetic, and the story, without giving too much away, has gnostic themes similar to what one might find in many sci-fi films of the 1990s. I would recommend and loan this book to others curious about the genre as well-done typical Bizarro.

I read this book on Kindle, and it's just perfect for that format. You can find the Kindle edition here for five bucks.
