Kirjaudu LibraryThingiin nähdäksesi, pidätkö tästä kirjasta vai et. Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. Funny concept, a bit long on execution. Would have made a first-rate novella; at novel-length, it dragged in places. ( ) This was an entertaining story similar to The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It has some good laugh-out-loud moments. However, I cannot give it more than three stars because a) there is gratuitous foul language used, including taking the Lord's name in vain, and b) a fawning endorsement of Bill Gates's "humanitarian" efforts in the epilogue.
..a lot like if Carl Hiaasen wrote American Psycho, but about the music copyright business instead of a bloodthirsty psychopath—if there is any difference. At least one dust jacket review wants to draw comparisons with Douglas Adams. But this isn't the dry British humor of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, it's the full-bore American smartass variety (though it does tend to meander like an Adams book). PalkinnotDistinctions

But Frampton and Carly are highly advanced (if bumbling) extraterrestrials. The entire cosmos, they tell him, has been hopelessly hooked on American pop songs ever since ??Year Zero? (1977 to us), resulting in the biggest copyright violation since the Big Bang and bankrupting the whole universe. Nick has just been tapped to clean up this mess before things get ugly. Thankfully, this unlikely galaxy-hopping hero does know a thing or two about copyright law. Now, with Carly and Frampton as his guides, Nick has forty-eight hours to save humanity??while hoping to wow the hot girl who lives down the ha Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
