Editorial Review:
His dad named him Napoleon, hoping he'd conquer the world -- or something. Though his world has been a disappointing place. After fifteen years, Napoleon busts out and takes to the streets. He's hoping to find something real, something unspoiled by adults. But the streets are just aching to eat him alive, and Luna Park won't stop laughing in his face.
He orbits a gang leader who wants to start Armageddon downtown. He falls hard for Sammie, an astro-chick always en route to the moon. Mr. Bones, with his scythe and hood, taunts him at every corner, and the only way Napoleon can survive is to stay sane in this world gone mad. The trouble is, what happens if it's all the reverse?
Nirvana's Children Reviews:
Positive Customer Feedback 
2009-07-05 - The product was exactly as described, and the turnaround excellent. It was my first amazon purchase, and I am more that happy to use this seller again. Thank you very much! This book has been very hard to locate in Australia!
Wonderfully Interesting... 
2005-07-28 - Our library bought this book last year and my friends and I were drawn to it. It has a very unique writing style. Half of the content isn't part of the actual story, but it conveys the moods and feelings of what is happening. It can be very confusing, but it kept me interested the whole way through. The ending was the best part, and though I won't ruin it, it did make some of my friends cry. As a final thought, this book is written in a childlike format, however, some of its topics are more suited to older readers. I would only recommend this book for young adults over the age of fifteen.

2004-04-28 - while the story seems good the book actually fails to capture what it sets out to. it tells of the young boys first time making "disease". and of other things the whole time reading it i thought this kid had a mental disorder that should have been spotted years ago.
