A dark and gritty read as King paints a picture of a world gone mad via a signal through mobile phones. It's very anti-tech so far with King seemingly disliking the way people are glued to their phones as much as i do. The three main protagonists characters are gradually unfolding as their plight and journey out of the city takes pace. |
This is not playing out like i expected. I'm well into the third quarter of the book and we might be entering
Scanners territory.
