5 stars versus ANYTHING (except maybe the Bible)

This is a literary work of art by one of the greatest living authors. The subject matter can be dark, but for those giving it anything less than 5 stars... I guess those folks really need to do some homework.

Why am I reviewing it? This book is the single GREATEST Father's Day gift for a man with a child (especially a son) that I can possibly imagine. THAT is what this book is about, regardless of whether its sci-fi or lo-fi. It is a portrayal of father and son.

Why all the hype?

I ordered this book due to an interest in post apocalyptic fiction, and after reading it, I still can't see why this book was so hyped. I kept reading hoping it would get better, but it never quite went anywhere. If you're looking for an interesting read, look somewhere else.
