The Extra A review by Seamus Sweeney.

With its plentiful gallows humour, competitive struggling in a world of scarcity, and dark extension of the reality TV concept to a logical extreme, The Extra is an entertaining mirror of our own strange days.

Los Angeles Times
‘The Extra’ by Michael Shea (Reviewed by Erik Himmelsbach) on February 11, 2010.

Fantasy Book Critic
“The Extra” by Michael Shea (Reviewed by Robert Thompson) on January 27, 2010.

[…] Michael Shea’s “The Extra” is an exhilarating thrill-ride full of creativity, insane action, and accomplished writing. Hugely entertaining, I can’t wait for the rest of the trilogy…
