Title: Chock full of dumb!
Review: Oh, so this novel was supposed to be funny. Well let me tell you, I read this while I was waiting for a flight out of Chicago O'Hare and I would have to say that this novel was roughly as amusing as the random search and pat down I got to go through before boarding the plane. David Garnett is trying to be Terry Pratchett or perhaps Harry Harrison. Unfortunately writing science fiction is hard and writing funny science fiction is even harder. This book is a pointless waste of money. One of the cover blurbs on the book says that "A billion monkeys working for a billion years couldn't come up with this one" I take that as a testimony to the writing abilities of the lower primates and not as a recommendation for this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
