Quite funny and compulsively readable.

Takes the measure of our life and times and extrapolates an interesting and believable near future, mostly tongue-in-cheek, but pertinent nonetheless.

A quick and enjoyable read.

Almost worth reading. Farcical near-future IT satire has some good laffs and a few interesting thoughts, but no direction.

3,5 Sterne für das Hörbuch. Hab ein paarmal laut gelacht, aber es hat mich irgendwie nicht ganz so gecatcht. Ist aber vielleicht auch der unfaire Vergleich mit dem Känguru
