Review:
Is Wil Wheaton a geek? Well, he doesn't appear to be one in the sense that technical people might use the term. But in the sense of someone obsessed with a weird culture and a strange community of people who require that you perform and be engrossed in esoteric activities irrelevant to the normal world, then yes, he is. Oh, and Wheaton's also into the Star Trek cosmos. The material is frequently amusing, and sometimes poignant. There isn't much poetry in the writing but it is readable. Otherwise, however, there doesn't seem to be an awful lot of point to the work unless you are consumed with a passion for a) Wil Wheaton, b) Star Trek trivia, or c) the mind of an actor who hasn't worked much recently.
