The Snowden Avalanche by Derek SwannsonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Because it was written by Derek Swannson. I have long been a fan of Mr. Swannson's work. I have read his entire Crash Gordon series, Crash Gordon and the Mysteries of Kingsburg (Volume 1),Crash Gordon and the Revelations from Big Sur, and Nitt-Witt Ridge: A Big Sur Freak Fable. All were fantastical adventures that delighted me in their ability to swirl together the best of Robert Anton Wilson, Tom Robbins, and Douglas Adams and yet be so strikingly original. This time Swannson has taken inspiration from the Snowden debacle and create an alternate reality where the wall street elite are dying in all kinds of mysterious ways and are desperate to have their evil deeds spun into PR gold by paying insane amounts of money to iAestheticians like Sabina Hrafnsson, the stories protagonist. As usual, I found myself laughing out loud in public places causing people to look at me in more concerned ways than usual. Please read this book, you will never look at iguana floggings in the same way again.
