Gully Foyle is a monster, a dumb brute, a murderer, rapist and terrorist. Driving by revenge against those that left him to die, he will do anything and everything to punish those who have wronged him. 
I like the book, but I thought the ending was a bit of a cop out. It goes all cosmic instead of having its lead face the consequences of his actions.
