Ik denk dat ik geen beter boek had kunnen kiezen voor mijn eerste Bachman. De spanning doorheen het verhaal is bij momenten te snijden, je blijft achter Richards staan terwijl je door dit landschap, dat nog erger is dan in 1984, gaat en meer leert over de maatschappij. Gigantische aanrader voor fans van Black Mirror, 1984, dystopia...

My first stephen king, took me all of 4 days to finish. Never even heard of this book by him, so excited to read some of his more popular stuff in the future. Dystopian novels are great here and there
