Second this. The main story remains relevant to this day. I remember clearly where I was when I read it for the first time in 2001. I read most of it every ten years or so.
However.
The last chapter is explicit in a way that is unnecessary and does not contribute to the story. It may be illegal in some jurisdictions, depending on how strict the laws are. There are plausible reasons to select the path it takes but the explicit detail incorporated is awful, corrosive, and is solely responsible for why I can’t recommend the story to anyone.
I should mirror the story and truncate the final chapter so I can share it with people.
I read this book and liked it, but I don't remember anything really bad about the last chapter and having a quick scan of the linked page above, I don't see anything really out there. What am I missing?
Fairly graphic descriptions of very underage father-daughter sex, so clumsily written and out of character it's like bad NSFW fan fiction.
Ah yes, my memory clearly didn’t want to keep that bit. It sort of made sense in the context of having a tiny number of people left. I read another book called Dark Eden that had some similar problems.
