OK.. No Spoilers from this reviewer.. the description tells you what the novel is about.  The author used a time worn plot in an astounding new way.  I really enjoyed this novel.. it is fun, fast paced, realistic and a bit haunting.The prose uses an eclectic mix of 80's culture and futuristic temperament to weave a suspenseful thrilling tale through a familiar yet bizarre landscape.  The humor and the horror can be "felt" in the pages, in fact the author has his unique way of presenting the characters and situations so a reader can't help but understand what each person is going through.  The novel throws together a varied range of personalities; each trying to survive in a crisis yet also trying to collaborate to find a solution.For this reader The Mall is a novel about what very well may happen in the near future as our society continues to move forward as a consumer, instant gratification, technological driven culture.
