So Eliezer Yudkowsky, spergiest hero of Less Wrong and leader of some panicky AI institute thing, has published a light novel.

The description:

>"My family name is Yugano. My given name is Yuuki. I have no redeeming qualities." So begins this light novel of a girl thoroughly corrupted by the Internet, and then summoned to another world

(pic related)

Has anyone read it yet? Worth shilling out a dollar? Any excerpts so we can make fun of it?

Found a few chapters:

http://www.yudkowsky.net/other/fiction/girl-intercorrupted/

It's rather boring. He tries to copy the light novel style with a bit of meta thrown in (the narrator/main character knows all the tropes of the genre) but it just ends up being bland.

mediocre as usual borderline creepy prose:
>“It’s important that you understand the purpose of this ceremony,” says one of the women in gold robes. She casts a doubtful look at my towel-clothing and the nubile body I’m keeping underneath it. “They say to assume a Summoned Hero doesn’t know anything, so should I start with the very basics?”

etc. pp. not worth the time
