Title: Awful. Just awful.
Product review: This book comprises more than forty short chapters of shallow characters and amateur metaphysics. What begins with a simple promising ghost story eventually becomes a nation-spanning quest to find a plot. The climax is contrived, with an anti-nuclear message so cliched it can only leave the reader with the simple feeling that he or she has been cheated out of a full-length novel in favor of a piece of outdated propaganda. Skip over this book in favor of one of Greg Bear's more mature works, such as "Moving Mars."
