I read that! Can't remember it being particularly replete with local vernacular. But I do remember it ultimately disappointed me. I don't remember why; but the fact I never read the sequal seems proof enough.
Then again (back to words) I've been caught out here many times; something I thought was universal has turned out to be British or English. I think I've only needed cultural references explained in return though - perhaps because America exports so much entertainment.
