Utopia PR by Adam Bender

3.0

Overall, I found Utopia PR to be an entertaining read, full of unexpected turns and full speed ahead hijinks. I did however find the main character to be rather unlikeable - his main personality traits seems to be feeling sorry for himself about his descent from idealism into government PR, and eating jelly donuts, which rather describes the depth of characterization that any of the characters received. Fortunately, the plot is better than the characters. We follow our narrator from one political crisis to another as he deals with everything from killer robot dogs to opiate laced milk and attempts to spin these things in favor of the President. Meanwhile, the narrator and his wife, a prominent news reporter, investigate some other sinister going ons that may or may not have anything to do with the President.

Overall, an enjoyable read.
