Book Reviews of Prisoner's Dilemma
Book Review: A Waste of Time
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is terrible. I read it for my book club and everyone thought the first 100 pages were unengaging. I felt that none of the characters were interesting and only about halfway through the novel felt that the book was worthy of a second thought. That feeling dissipated however after further reading. There is no climax in the novel and thus the ending does little to satisfy the reader. Skip this book, and read Powers' vastly superior Gold Bug instead.
