@Asher, you’re speeding right along as you catch up on comments. Excellent! You made a couple interesting observations about the “sequel” question. I suspect you’re right about the chances of a Slugfest 2 (but I still have 67 pages to see how the story gets resolved, so I’m not ruling it out in my mind just yet!). I’ll point out the huge gap in GRK’s “standalone novels” list on his Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Korman , where Pop (2009) chronologically bumps up against Restart (2017), with everything in between part of one series or another. And that GRK has written all or parts of 19 different series (including his contributions to The 39 Clues), resulting in two-thirds of his book list being part of series. (In fact, almost exactly half of his books are sequels to other books).
Redhead in Pefkakia, hahahahahahahaha.
