"It's a drug that promises an out-of-body experience with each hit. On the street they call it Soy Sauce, and users drift across time and dimensions. But some who come back are no longer human. Suddenly a silent otherworldly invasion is underway, and mankind needs a hero. What it gets instead is John and David, a pair of college dropouts who can barely hold down jobs. Can these two stop the oncoming horror in time to save humanity? No. No, they can't."

This book reads like it was written by a late Gen Xer at the turn of the millennium, and by that of course I mean that it has aged terribly. I could not recommend it. But also, I was a white boy in Southern Illinois in the late 90s myself, so I understand where it comes from and cut it more slack that I should. I stuck with it because some friends insist that the rest of the series gets better.
