A review by thegreatmanda
Company by Max Barry

3.0

This book begins with some fairly good satire on the typical office. That amusing beginning gave me high hopes which were later disappointed. As the deeper plot of the novel unfolds, the whole affair descends into ridiculous, tedious drama. I'm guessing it was meant to be dramedy, but as the humor falls somewhat flat, it's hard to say for sure. Overall it's a reasonably amusing read, but had it lived up to its potential it would have vastly better. All of which adds up to a feeling of letdown, in the end.
