Cute quick story. I think it ties in with the Androids Dream book, vaguely.

Short story in the ‘Android’s Dream’-verse. Amusing, but completely unnecessary.

Judge Bufan Nigun Sn is fanatic about golf. He is an alien judge whose race is not really meant to do well at golf, the body structure is wrong. But he is determined to do well. Unfortunately, his temper has caused him to be banned from all golf courses except one, Dulles Woods, built on the former site of Dulles International Airport, thinly laid over the airport runways. As he begins his game with a strange caddy, a miracle happens - he begins to play well. Then an assassin shows up - and then it gets complicated.......

Audiobook narrator [a:John Scalzi|4763|John Scalzi|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1407277112p2/4763.jpg] rating: 3.5 stars
This was a fun and short story from John Scalzi and read by him too. It was a little slow at first but I liked where the story was going and liked how it ended up. It would be fun to make this into an animated short film. John Scalzi’s narration was ok as well – not too bad.

This was wonderfully silly. If you like Scalzi's style of humor, you'll like this. There's not a ton of plot here, but it's a fun, light read.
This is a companion piece to The Android's Dream, but you don't have to have read that book in order to enjoy this.
