Starting with a good premise (post nuclear holocaust) this book is a horrible addition to the genre. The entire book is nothing more than childlike characters engaging in adult practices. With no inhibitions or restraint. The characters are drab and unappealing. The description of the character is such that it is very difficult discern between the individuals with a few exceptions. The ending is not worth 250 pages of mindnumbing drivle you have to endure. This book is a romance with less of a plot than usual.
