This is the only Bachman book i have read, but i have a hunch i love him more than king.
Whats more fun that a bleak future? this book feels like what Reagan thought america was like. porn theatres and drugs everywhere, pollution and poverty are killing more people that ever, and everywhere feels dirty and unsafe. even our leading man is a total dick.
the way Stephen king writes kind of feels like an old man trying to be cool, and that old man lens adds a real charm to the book. definitely feels like a less cool cyberpunk, and its one of my favorite stories he has ever written.
10/10
