" Fans of Glenn Beck, eat your heart out! I read this as a favor to an uber-conservative friend and found myself gagging down all his fearmongering, apocalyptic rhetoric. It felt like I was arguing the entire time. The story, itself, is interesting if you can get past his claims that the destruction of human existence as we know it will come at the hands of radical, tree-hugging environmentalists or that somehow he knows what the Founding Fathers actually intended. All hail the prophet, Mr. Beck! Dystopian books are interesting because they imagine the possible. Mr. Beck, however, wants to sell you on the idea that this is actually coming unless we all do something really drastic. Well, as long as his fortune keeps growing and he isn't asked to share any of it with anybody! "
