 ... speak on her behalf, no-one wants to listen to Connie’s side of the story. Life can’t get much worse. Well, actually it can, because lucky Connie is one of the patients chosen to participate in a frightening experiment involving electronic implantations in the brain – an experiment in which five thousand monkeys have already been “used up”.

average read, some very good characters a very forgettable read, some very weak characters

great characters, unique storline, well written first 20 - 25 pages are too graphic

Fast-paced and funny Badly-written, unlikeable, one-dimensional characters, formulaic and annoying

It's about horse racing. It's tosh.

Entertaining read, great characters, authentic setting, gentle humour Complex names

Great read, very funny, and also sad!!! Can be a little confusing, but you'll soon understand it!! :-)
