Book Review of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom

Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom
reviewed Young Adult Novel? More like 20-30 something! on + 175 more book reviews


This is the clean very good shape paperback version, Although it says "Young Adults", there is a gratutius amount of sex, foul language, drug and alcohol use, as it is an accepted part of Cory's future society. The plot takes a disappointing twist and some of the stuff is hurried. This is for people who like weird stories, futurist earth where all's cool and it's about being cool not money or those under 30. I love Cory on boingboing dot net (highly recommended website, very addictive), and thats wht I took a chance on his book. I also purchased his other book in hardcover "Little Brother", which was nominated and won literary rewards and someone in Chicago is going a play about it. Will place it here when we finish reading it.
