The Ultimate Rush is a novel by Joe Quirk, which relates the adventures of a tattoo covered computer hacking, in-line skating bicycle messenger in San Francisco who becomes involved with a stock market scam which his boss heads. The book is hilarious, if cheesy, with Mobsters named after Star Trek characters and a blue-haired skateboard riding girlfriend named Ho Pixie who has a big, slobbery, equally blue-haired dog named Willy. Reading the Ultimate Rush is like watching a really good action movie; there's not much substance, but it goes by really fast and has many chase scenes.
