I listened to the audio book (more an audio play, with multiple voice actors) ten years ago and I loved it. I had to listen to the whole thing in one go, which took until the next morning. I know not to try this book again because it will most likely not live up to my memories, so the rating reflects how I remember the (audio) book.

I enjoyed this book a lot. The humor was very absurd and silly and I liked that. But unfortunately it suffers from the same problem as Douglas Adams' books: it gets old after a book. I tried some of Moers' other books and just couldn't get into them the same as with Käpt'n Blaubär. I guess being different than the rest is a blessing and a curse.
Man, what a crappy book. For one, I was rooting for Mitnick. And Shimomura comes across as such a self-aggrandizing douchebag. I hated him throghout the book. Stoll's "Cuckoo's Egg" is much better, even though he too comes across as rather pleased with himself and you don't get to hear the other side.

I read this in a few hours when I was 12 or so and the rating if five stars is how I remember feeling after reading it. I don't think it would hold up on a re-read. But back then I got really into the book and I think for that age group it still can be a great book.
