Really good.

Bimbos of the Death Sun is WONDERFUL! There's a sequel, of sorts. Zombies of the Gene Pool. Apparently McCrumb got a not very welcoming reception for those books from the s-f community, which is truly sad. Some people apparently took offense at the way fandom was portrayed. I'm a fan, and I feel she was pretty much spot on.
