The world is pretty much the way it is now. 80-90% of the people are violent evil nuther truckers. There's only one hope left. So being opposed by a crazy 2 minded self-aware computer and gangs of violent thugs (the violence described is gratuitous and kind of original the sex scenes are at best comical and if i hadn't read the authors bio I would have thought he was a 6th grader.) anyway I am caught up in the story and I like that there is so many open holes in the story that we just pass by and should just ignore.
Don't think too much just read.

It was quite some time I didn't read such a ridiculously written book. The plot is fairly bad, the naming of the characters is ridiculous, there is no depth whatsoever. Feels like it's written by a teenager with a penchant for dreaming of weapons and apocalypse. I know is sound pissed off at the book and I am sorry, but i feel robbed of several reading evenings.
