Reader comments
Overall, this is an ambitious and thoughtful piece of work. It is not suitable for readers looking for light reading, but if you are fond of dark and depressing apocalyptic aesthetics, hard-core science fiction settings, and profound questions about the survival of civilization, this book will bring a quite unique reading experience. It's not perfect, but its heaviness and authenticity are exactly what make it charming.
