Landscape with Invisible Hand by M.T. Anderson

3.0

To be honest, I chose this based on the cover. I thought it was intriguing and why not give it a shot? Thank goodness it wasn't very long as I don't think I would have finished it. Yes the satire and social commentary were the book's strong points but, the characters sucked. Like wildly sucked so bad, I almost stopped reading. I know they aren't the main point but, I felt disappointed in them. Maybe this could have faired better as a short story rather than a novel but, for me, it's about 100 pages too long. Again, if you like the biting, realistic view of what would happen should an alien species come to Earth, maybe give this go.
