I put off reading this for a few months because I wasn't sure exactly what it would be about, or how Hugh Howey could possibly weave together his 9/11 experiences with the world of Kurt Vonegut. But let me tell you, once I started reading, I read all the way through, and was constantly blown away by how good his writing was. The story essentially has no plot, just dances back and forth between the zoo on Tralfamadore and Hugh himself as he deals with the immediacy of 9/11. I found myself tearing up more than once at the power of this little story, and was impressed at how much the writing at times sounded just like Slaughter House V. I've already recommended this story to my HH loving friends. Grab it, you won't be disappointed.
