Bad Monkeys
Matt Ruff, Bad Monkeys, Bloomsbury
Lots of good words have been said about this book
including some from Neal Stephenson himself - not
that this book is a huge doorstop.
What we have is a world where incorrigibly not
nice people are called Bad Monkeys by an organisation
who tracks them by super-sophisticated means and kills
them on a regular basis.
The Bad Monkeys have an organisation as well and
in this story, which races around the place at a great
rate, we are kept guessing as to who is who and what's
where until the final pages.
It's a fun read.
