There are already a couple reviews about the plot and how it could be read as metaphor of capitalism + tourism in modern day Cuba. This, and the whole story outline of aliens-touristically-exploiting-earth was what drove me to read "Planet for Rent".
side note: I was expecting a novel after reading the blurp and reviews. To my surprise it was actually a collection of loosely connected short stories.

Unfortunately, the book didn't really work out for me and I was struggling whether put it back in the shelf after reading half through. Many of the stories just had too much gory body horror scenes and suggestions of sexual violence (towards minors). And then there was this sport story about an alien sport tournament which I simply found boring to read.

Despite my critique, the stories certainly did have some strong parts, thought-provoking ideas of earths exploited future and a couple good dialogs, but as a whole I didn't like it as much as I hoped I would when I picked it up.
