I started reading Mr. Stark's book a few months ago...after all, I carry his paperbacks in my book store. To be honest, I put it down, due to some of the typographical errors I tripped over. Having been brow beaten, however, by the folks in town who have read it, and by top-notch authors who tout it's originality, I finished it a couple of days ago. Now, I'm mad at myself for putting it off for so long!This is a true comedic novel, filled with fun and quirky characters, menacing "bad-guys", uber-evil corporations and satirical insights into government corruption.When the old adage---write what you know--- pops up, it's usually because an author has caught the spirit of his characters, landscape and plot-line perfectly, and in a way that oozes authenticity. Mr. Stark has done this in spades.If you like Christopher Moore and Carl Hiaasen, you'll love Edwin Stark's, Eco Station One!You WILL find some type and grammar issues, but don't be like me and let it put you off- I missed out on a real chuckle-fest, and so will you!Four stars.
