Some people will go to a house party. Some to a restaurant. Maybe celebrate with friends or spend it with family. There is a myriad of options for New Years Eve 2000. Stella Barrett, editor of Celebrity magazine is not going to settle for any of these choices. She will host the most spectacular party the world has ever known. She plans to invite 2,000 Top celebrities to join her, and her magazine, to welcome in the year 2000.

With all the top sites booked, some since 1975, the venue has to be unique. It has to be somewhere that epitomises "celebrity" and the calibre of the guests invited. It just has to be a luxury liner on its maiden voyage, conveniently anchored on the International dateline. Logistically, arranging a party should be a straight- Forward affair. However, with an expert hacker doing his utmost to corrupt the guest list; an ex-employee planning to gate crash as well as a comet on course to hit planet earth, this party could prove make or break for Celebrity magazine and its market share. This really is a party to die for.

Graham Lord spoils us with his sharp poignant wit and astute historical interpretation. As is the lifestyle of celebrities, we are taken all around the world in this book. Los Angeles to Monaco, the Tongan islands to Vietnam. A helter-skelter ride of fast lucid narrative, witty and satirical characters all added together, bringing you a truly pleasurable book. --Jon Smith
