Title: Overrated and has no story
Product review: Personally I don't understand the rave reviews this book is getting. Yes, the world it creates is interesting, but the total lack of story drove me crazy. Basically, "the man" and "the boy" walk, look for food, and hide. Repeat over and over and over. There's no character growth, no real plot or suspense, and nothing about these characters to particulary like. We're given almost no history of either what happened to the world or of the main characters. A very dull read if you ask me. If you're looking for something beyond just a mood piece (that mood being depression), I'd advise looking for something else to read. Try the reviewer above, Dennis Lehane. Now HE is brilliant.
