I just finished Year Zero last night and let me tell this to all of you-- don't believe anyone when they say that book is good, they're obviously trolling you.
The premise is incredible, it's just everything else is terrible. It has horribly written characters that have no arc what-so-ever, it has unimaginative bland aliens and alien worlds, it's not actually that funny, and the entire book is setup to tell one incredibly old, boring, cliche, unfunny joke at the end that anyone could see coming a mile away.
From the bad humor, the way it was written, and how completely uninspired everything is, I would probably believe you if you told me a 13 year old wrote that book.
