It has to be how he used the names.

Jennifer Government I'm not sure how much of the story is spoiled, but I love the story. I've read several of his books, and love the Dystopian World that he creates in Jennifer Government.

I figured it was the "way" that they were used, since (and this isn't "much" of a spoiler) Nike sets up a campaign to murder their own customers as they come to buy the newest shoes, to give them some "instant street cred", driving the demand, and what not.

I've read Syrup, Jennifer Government, and Company. I think they are all great fiction, even if the social commentary is a little "meh" for my tastes.
