I found an old notebook with a list of everything I was reading in the early nineties. I had a system of 0-3 stars going and gave this one no stars.

I tried to explain it to a friend today and got bogged down. "It's set in a future in which small aliens have landed on Earth and decide to use humans as their steeds."
