I think Andrews gets funnier with every book. In this one, as a favor to her brother, Meg agrees to help her brother with his computer game company, "Mutant Wizards." The book opens with her trying to teach a temp to tend the switchboard. But the woman is scared off by the buzzard perched in the corner, Meg's brother performing a kata, and a techie riding the automatic mail carrier pretending to be dead. Besides the loony techies, she's also dealing with Michael's mother's dog, and the psychotherapists who refuse to give up their lease on half the office space. Then the practical joker turns out to be dead for real.
