Market Forces

I put it away after the first six or seven chapters. I understand what Morgan is trying to do here but the whole theme of Mad Max-like violence as a facet of turbo capitalism didn't do it for me. The idea simply didn't click, it was a bit too ham-fisted for my personal taste.

Hence, no star rating as I don't feel qualified to rate that novel.
