Fails
WP:NBOOKS. Minimum two non-trivial coverage are missing which must appear in sources that are independent of the book itself. -

Keep The Vulture ref is an interview so doesn't count, nor does the New Yorker piece. However, The New Republic and Elite Daily are full book reviews. It was also reviewed by The New York Times, The Booklist, and The Northern Star (Northern Illinois University); I'll look for more reviews tomorrow, as well as add refs for the reviews I found to the article. Meets
WP:NBOOK.

Keep. Also the Economist
[1], Michigan Daily
[2], and Canada's CBC
[3]. Meets NBOOK!

Keep. No further comments as the references brought up by both Pilaz and Schazjmd are reliable for this subject.

Keep per links provided by Pilaz. Surely these would have turned up in a search
before nomination for deletion

Comment. This is a real world book, not a fictional one, so this is incorrectly listed at the "list of Fictional elements-related deletion discussions". Sigh. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|

Keep per pilaz's sources. I think there's no need to go to town on whether a
WP:BEFORE was done or not - anyone who has been to AFD enough knows that searches can miss things.
