Syrup

Scat is young, confused, underemployed, and in Los Angeles. So when he comes up with the idea for the hottest new cola ever, he's sure he'll retire as the next overnight sensation. But in the treacherous waters of corporate America there is no sure thing -- and suddenly Scat has to save not only his idea but his yet-to-be-realised career. With the help of scarily beautiful and brainy 6 -- who has all the angles Scat so desperately desires -- he sets out on a mission to reclaim the fame and fortune that, time and again, elude him. This brilliant debut is a hilarious send-up of celebrity, sexual po.

  • ""Ich will alles." "Ich will berühmt werden. Richtig berühmt. Ich will alles. Ich will den grossen amerikanischen Traum!" Scat ist davon überzeugt, dass jeder Mensch einmal im Leben eine Idee hat, die ihm den ganz grossen Gewinn beschert. Man braucht nur ein Produkt - und die dazugehörige ultimative Marketingkampagne. In diesem Fall heisst das Produkt "Fukk" und ist eine Limonade mit einem völlig neuen Cola-Geschmack. Tatsächlich findet Scat einen Partner, der drei Millionen Dollar in "Fukk" investiert. Blöd nur, dass Scat vergessen hat, den Markennamen schützen zu lassen. Max Barry wurde am 18.März 1973 geboren und lebt mit seiner Frau und zwei Töchtern in Melbourne Australien. Seine besten Jahre verbrachte er bei Hewlett-Packard, bevor er seine Festanstellung gegen die Produktion von Romanen eintauschte. Zusätzlich zu seinen ersten drei Romanen entwickelte er das Online-Spiel NationStates und arbeitete an allerhand Software-Projekten mit. Bei allen seinen Romanen wurden die Filmrechte verkauft."
