Waldo and Magic, Inc.

Waldo was great, Magic Inc - not so much.

Waldo feels like as the younger, rebellious brother of Valentine Michael Smith, with a mix of hard sci-fi and the Heinlein brand of magical realism.

Magic Inc. is very uneven, and feels more like a series of interconnected vignettes, then like a proper story. The characters are underdeveloped, and the story is, well, as boring as watching political proceedings.
