My review -
Martin
lives in a shared house and begins to realise the other inhabitants have
memories that he should share but he doesn't. He has to rely on the others who
inform him he's their leader. Someone is trying to take over the world but in a
benign way. He doesn't want power or riches, but to make people cooperate and
to end wars. He's known as the Colonel. Would you want peace at the price of a
chip in your brain which takes away your free will? And this chip is going to
be activated by... Elvis! This is really off-the-wall stuff and a quirky mix of
fantasy, sci-fi and humour.
I
enjoyed this story and found the characters very individual and distinct which
isn't easy with a big cast. The story is funny bordering on silly but I loved
some of the detail. The Colonel's guards are called the Hound Dogs, for
example. This book as has a high enjoyability quotient and is a light, fun
read.
