  <default_description>It's 18 years after the nuclear holocaust and the end of civilization, as we know it. Survivors are being relocated to a new society known as the Alliance.  It seems like a dream come true for many of the new citizens. Crime, as well as harmful emotions, such as anger and prejudice have been eliminated, because the Alliance has computerized control over it's citizens from a computer chip that has been implanted in everyone.  Eric Lloyd discovers the Alliance's corrupt power structure and vows to destroy it.  But can one person change the world?</default_description>

The development is morally responsible (166, 329), and I certainly appreciated that he didn't even reproduce the only profanity referenced in the book (242).

    <body><![CDATA[Jason and I read this book together on our trip to Washington D.C.  We both really enjoyed the storyline.  It was fun to have someone to discuss the plot with. <br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>**SPOILER ALERT**<br/>The only part we didn't like was finding out about Eric and Nicole's first kiss t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/73287203">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thought this was a very smart book. It reminded me a little of The Host. <br/>If you get a book that doesn't have 80's artwork, then there isn't anything that REALLY dates it, except for the mention of videos. But for being written twenty some-odd years ago, it was a pretty cool little book. <br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/44875436">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I guess back when this book was written, it would have seemed terrible to implant people.  However reading it now I find that it is old news and totally possible... it is happening.  We haven't yet got to the point where it is controlling the emotions of people (that I know of) yet we are using impl...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77362135">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A very good book. It is reminiscent of novels like Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World and Minority Report. A modern take on the battle of good and evil, and a reminder that men are not all knowing, and that many bad things have resulted from men with too great faith in their own wisdom, in using the po...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41639103">more...</a>]]></body>

I really can't except to say that this fiction book is a must read.<br/><br/>If it's just a pleasant read for you, you missed it.<br/><br/>If it's about computer chip implantation to you, you missed it.<br/><br/>If it's about freedom and how a people can become inure...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60807832">more...</a>]]></body>

Then this little village is met with other survivors that have found a &quot;cure&quot; to all violence and crime.
