Book Review-Populace-A M Wilson

What a strange book this is. I think it is kind of about what could happen in the future if the world keeps going the way it is. There is a distinct division between the rich and the poor. Both are controlled by the use of various drugs and robots who keep everyone in line. Some people are clones---all are just living an existence that well-----

Meanwhile there is a machine that once detonated will change the current world back 10,000 years or so in a few seconds-----The rulers all want this machine-----

Can Tom survive outside the New United States? Can he and his few friends survive the rulers--all out to change or kill them--

About the Book: (from Amazon)

America 2151. New York. Washington. Chicago. Los Angeles. All wiped out from nuclear blasts.

The New United States of America is centered in Omaha, where the Leviathan Corporation provides a muted, controlled existence for its populace. Synthetic drugs keep them sane. The people are safe — for now — from the threats on the outside.

Summoned to the president’s office, unlikely hero Thomas Ignatius Stout receives an extraordinary mission: Hunt down and return, dead or alive, the vicious killer responsible for destroying the lives of millions and millions of Americans, Joe Ikowski, who remains a thorn in the government's side. Tom accepts his burden and leads an expedition past Omaha's protective barrier and into the great unknown.

That’s when Tom’s journey really begins.

Taking him from Kentucky to Arizona to Mexicali and the Rocky Mountains, Tom finds far more than he is searching for — and starts to learn the deeply complicated, disturbing truths of his own identity and a world in which he had only before scratched the surface.

In this poignant page-turner, a novel that blends elements of science fiction, political thrillers and an Orwellian-style future, rising novelist AM Wilson takes readers on a wild ride inside what could become the future of the United States, if we ruin ourselves from the inside. It’s a novel that will make you think, no matter what you think of America.
