Industry Reviews
"This may be the first book ever published in order to undermine its own credibility....Yet I doubt the hex can be taken off the book quite so easily. Peel back the wrapping and what you have left is the original satire. And that remains a volatile thing....Even fully aware that it is a literary performance, you might fall for it, if only for a few seconds. His deadpan is that good."
Voice Literary Supplement - Scott McLemee (06/19/1996)

"The nutties out there are told by their leaders--who claim to have special knowledge--that this is a real government document because it fits how they view the government: wicked."
New York Times - Leonard C. Lewin (07/01/1996)

"It's hard to know who will have the last laugh with this one."
Delany
