replied on: 4/11/2006 3:44:06 PM I'd recommend The Free Lunch by Spider Robinson. I read it last year and it was an interesting story. Here's a plot synopsis: When young runaway Mike seeks refuge in Dreamworld, the world-famous theme park, he discovers that he is not the first to hide away in the park's underground passages. Along with veteran stowaway Annie, Mike learns that creatures known as Trolls have invaded Dreamworldand they seem to have a sinister reason for their presence in the park. Veteran sf humorist Robinson (the Callahan series) takes on American cultural icons with his customary love for irony and clever wordplay. I picked it up because I thought it had a neat cover. |
