Maybe. It sounds like a "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" sort of sense of humor about itself. And what would I expect it to be like... hmm... sort of a cross between Hitchhikers and "With a Single Spell" by Lawrence Watt Evans.

It does sound slightly YA to me... but I don't see anything wrong with YA. Some of my favorite books are YA, and I think anything with a sense of humour tends to be kinda slid toward that direction anyway (as in, I think a funny book has to try harder to be a grownup).
