It's difficult to describe this book. It's a post-apocalyptic novel, yet it's really tongue-in-cheek humor. I find it very much to be written in the tradition of Christopher Moore. Like Moore's work, this novel has its serious parts as well (though not too many). Honestly, I believe that if Moore were to write a post-apocalyptic novel, he would write something like this. You'll likely never read another novel like it, but if you like Moore, give this a try. If nothing else, you'll discover just to see how twisted authors can be.
