"My favorite book in Gardner's "Expendable" universe. It's absolutely hilarious. Even the chapter titles are funny. It's about a transparent girl (literally). Her people has flesh that's transparent and she thinks opaque people are terribly ugly. She's not very smart but she thinks she is. She somehow gets pulled into events far greater than her."
