The Most Glorious Hack
15-12-2003, 15:51
Welcome to paradise! The world is run by American corporations (except for a few deluded holdouts like the French); taxes are illegal; employees take the last names of the companies they work for; the Police and the NRA are publicly-traded security firms; and the U.S. government only investigates crimes it can bill for.
Hack Nike is a Merchandising Officer who discovers an all-new way to sell sneakers. Buy Mitsui is a stockbroker with a death-wish. Billy NRA is finding out that life in a private army isn't all snappy uniforms and code names. And Jennifer Government, a legendary agent with a barcode tattoo, is the consumer watchdog from hell.
First chapter is also online. Just click the banner at the very top of the page when you load your nation.

Yeah, you should read Syrup also, it is perhaps even better than JG. :o
At the risk of my nation mysteriously disappering.... Well I havent read it either, and after having read the first chapter I'm not sure weather I will. It looks like a good storyline, although I'm not to sure about how well written it is. Then I read the times review, and since it gave a bad review to the best TV drama in a long time im not sure as to weather believe it or not.
Anyway I work in a bookshop, so next time im in I may look to see if weve got it, and have a flick through to see if its any good. If it is I may buy it.

Well, I really do think that you should buy it.
I too, to begin with, was very unsure of it but I bought it and once I had started to read it I couldn't put it down. It is very good.
