Title: Good intentions, unintended consequences
Review: First off, I'd like to say that I am an avid gun enthusiast. That being said, I jumped into the (rather voluminous) pages of Unintended Consequences expecting an interesting and well-versed story about gun culture. What I got was a history lesson for about a quarter of the book, followed by some filler, which decided to devolve into masturbatory murder fantasy for the obvious Mary Sue character. The plot was somewhat enjoyable for around 300 pages, but completely stepped off the literary diving board after a few oddly placed rape scenes, involving both a female side-character and (strangely enough) the main character. And no, the main character in this case was not the perpetrator. Scenes include shooting helicoptors out of the sky via anti-tank rifles, mass explosions, and a ludicrous American insurgency scenario. The author, John Ross, is quite literally everything that America pictures as the typical "gun nut"
