1.0 out of 5 stars This book is complete nonsense., July 29 2005
This book is complete nonsense. Read it online first. If you can make sense of it and like it then buy it, otherwise you'll be kicking yourself for believing the author would create something similar to his previous works.

This is not a description of the workings of a fantastic fictional world, a la "Down and out.." and "Truncat". There is no consistent world presented, just odd stuff happening all around.

This is not a person's creating technology in a world near today a la "Eastern Standard...".

This is not awe inspiring tech of "0wnz0red".

This is like "A place so foreign" devoid of meaning and with the weirdness meter jammed past eleven.
