Love this book. It's by far my favorite Correy. I've read it at least five times and probably closer to ten, and I certainly know what's going to happen next, but it still draws me in and gets me excited all over again every time I read it. Mike is great, Tammy is too and in a very plausible fix. The sky hook itself is a neat idea. The office politics and their instigators are appropriately slimy - uncle isn't nearly as bad, though his preferred methods could be more damaging in the short run at least. The last chapter, with all the skim of ''what's going to happen'', isn't nearly as interesting as the rest - something of an anticlimax. But the last couple lines are a nice laugh to end on. Great book.
