Devourer's Assessment:
A little political agenda ax to grind here from the author, I think, but it was an enjoyable tale. The only thing that I think negatively impacted the book was the odd attempt at a romance despite the protagonist's girlfriend surviving a nuclear blast. Stretching that was the fact that the girlfriend then found herself supporting the protagonist's political opponent.
That aside, I will be keeping track of the series in the sequels. I give this novel three stars.
