Identity theft is big business, just be cautious. It happens alot especially now with developing countries.

Another great review, Julius! This sounds like it could've been a great read if it weren't for so many characters. I can have a hard time keeping track of a bunch of characters so this doesn't sound like a good one for me. One of my pet peeves is lengthy conversations, with some exceptions, so I think I would get annoyed with the lengthy and sometimes pointless dialogue. That's a shame though, because it does sound like it could've been a funny, entertaining read.

Mallory,
Yeah, it would've been a nice story. I can't stand multiple characters, and this had too many. These authors should consider reviewers like us will have a hard time ?

Nice review, as it makes me understand that the book will give me some insight into Australian politics.

I'd love me some satire right now. I'd also love to see the author's skill in this genre. There's a lot going on in the worldwide political arena, might offer some relief. Great review.

Now this is hilarious. I need me some satire right now. Am hoping the author mentioned Australia's weird refugee policy as currently witnessed in the plight of the PNG base. I'd love to have a look at this. Great review.

Hi Jude,
Yeah, there was some mention of the skewed policy. Check out the book, especially with that government's reactions to the Manu's island detainees.
