Any Coincidence Is

I read this book in one sitting. I like books with quotations at the start of each chapter! It starts off like something from Douglas Coupland but ends up more like Futurama. Mad scientists, crazy physics. It made me laugh at one point, and it's a fun story, but just gets wierder and wierder until it stops hanging together. I stopped caring what happened to the characters in the end. Better than anything I've ever written, though!

A very short story, which ends just when it is getting interesting. You'll need a dictionary for some of the words. It sort of builds up to a climax, then stops, with no explaination, but it's well worth reading if you have 5 minutes to spare.

Good fun, easy reading, and atmospheric. The author doesn't waste time on long descriptive passages. I enjoyed it.
