3.0 out of 5 stars
To little Mars and norsemen, to much drug trip,
By
This review is from: The Martian Viking (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is worth reading, but it's verry shallow as far as it's charactors go. The good guy wears a white hat sort of thing. The main charactor Johnsmith (all one word) is a divorced schholar of old english. He looses his job, the right to seen his son, and he starts using drugs. These aren't just ordinary drugs though. They're modern techno-drugs that make you halucinate in a pre-programmed way. Because not having a job is a crime in this future Johnsmith figures he'll be sent off to to the moon instead he goes to mars and manufactures drugs for the prisoners on the moon. He fights rebels on Mars (Where'd they come from? ) and discovers the truth behind his drug induced halucinations. The ending seemed to me to be a wrap it up in 5 minutes attempt that kind of worked. The book is on the high side of mediocrity. It's like Sullivan tried to blend Total Recal with Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and pulled off a halfway decent job.
