This is a wonderfully funny, lighthearted read with a deeper message. So many parallels were drawn throughout the book to the sillier side of human nature as well as the social inequalities we see worldwide and the growing power of corporations. I found myself laughing out-loud on numerous occasions, while being aware of the more serious messages that were underlying.
The future technologies were totally believable and the concept of the hum ants getting hooked on reality TV was genius.
As I read it I couldn't help thinking what a good film it would make.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fiction of any description.
