Reception

Dave Langford reviewed Executive for White Dwarf #82, and stated that "The allegory can get wearying: this is presumably why the book is pepped up with massive doses of the weird exercise (combined arm-wrestling, origami and dialectical analysis) which is the author's version of sex." [1]
