Who is the audience for this book? I'm going to say everybody. . . . Jameson writes with an easy, welcoming prose style, as though you and he are friends, sitting around chatting about Wookiees and Spock, Josh Whedon, Kermit the Frog, and the One Ring. --Charles de Lint, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction A thoroughly engaging and enjoyable look at the evolution of geek culture over the past four decades. --Kristine Huntley, Booklist As a huge Star Wars fan and all-around nerd, I knew I had to have this as soon as I read about it. Being a nerd/geek wasn't always cool, and this is a funny, well-researched memoir/case study of geekdom. I'm loving every page and trying not to read it too fast, because I want to savor it. --Jaime Herndon, Bookriot [I Find Your Lack of Faith Disturbing] explores a broad range of geekish enthusiasms, from comic books to the inescapable comic book movie adaptations to SFF movies of all types, and it's all deeply refreshing for two main reasons: Jameson always respects the intelligence of his readers, and he always keeps the geekdom phenomenon firmly in its broader social context. --Steve Donoghue, Open Letters Review
