5.0 out of 5 stars PKP and Fluffy Rock!!!, Feb 6 2004
By 
This review is from: Cats In Cyberspace (Paperback)
Whatever you do, do NOT read this book aloud. It has definitely given our little four-foots ideas!

This book is compelling, entertaining, and WAAAY too close to reality. It's a fun ride from start to finish, and we were sad to see it end. So we are very much looking forward to the sequel, Prey-Part Politics. (We'd vote for PKP.)

This is a fine addition to anyone's library, but it's an absolute must-have for anyone with four-foots in their lives.

3.0 out of 5 stars 3.5 stars: Short, clever and fun, Nov 10 2003

Peter D. Tillman (Taos, NM USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cats In Cyberspace (Paperback)
This one is pure wish-fulfillment fantasy (but fun) -- a struggling writer and her musician-husband are saved from wage-slavery by Fluffy & PKP [note 1], their Web-savvy, entrepeneurial pets. It's a pretty slight idea to support a novel, but it's short, clever, and has a bravura finish. Recommended, especially for struggling artists.

Special kudos to Ed Cox for the cover art -- do enlarge the cover scan, above!

PS: when the book gets slow, you may want to skim ahead to where the cats order a pizza. Double anchovies, extra ham, no sauce.

Note 1) --that's Princess Killer Pinknose...

4.0 out of 5 stars Cats in cahoots, July 7 2003
By 
Cat's Pajamas (The Berkshires, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cats In Cyberspace (Paperback)
A fellow cat-person gave this to me, but I put off reading it for months, fearing it would be too cutesy (actually is a touch heavy on the italics-for-emphasis, thus the 4 rather than 5 stars)...well, last night I finally opened it, and read it in one sitting, laughing all the way.

Beth Hilgartner has captured perfectly the way multiple cats conspire to do the things that one could not accomplish alone. While cat-lovers in general would love this book, those who live in a multi-cat household would especially enjoy the collaborative techniques of the feline sisters who, while sparring all the while on a personal level, bring off a caper brilliantly. And notice, too, that the bossy, overbearing Princess is eventually gotten the better of by her cyber-empowered sister. Also delightful is that the cats' keyboarding skills are never discovered by the humans, which would be the more expected end of such a tale.

Is a sequel in the offing, perhaps...?
