    Someone post a review of it and I'll consider it.

      ok, DD. ive read both. I found both to be quick reads, and very enjoyable. Syrup was much lighter than JG. i can easily recommend both of them, but i caution you that many others havent liked some aspects of barry's writing style. i suggest you read the first chapters here:

        Jennifer governemnte seemed amazingly funny

        like a modern "Space Merchants" (you know; the book by Fred Pohl and CM Kornbluth)

        It seemed better than Syrup- though syrup seemed fast paced as well.

        although they both seemed fairly foul mouthed.

        but reasonably fun!

                  Once again, I must state that I loved Jennifer Government. I haven't been able to locate his other books in real bookstores, but am on the lookout!

                    Shame the poll had a date set. I borrowed my first one from Remick, then after bought others online. They are a good read.
