Product Description

Product Description
It is New Year in paranoid, computer-rich New Tork, and a group of Owners has jet-rotored out to party in O-Zone. In this novel New York is a sealed city and visits to the eerie, radioactive wasteland of O-Zone are now rarer than moon landings.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing !!, 23 May 2003
By Ms. Srv Herault "smi12308" (Swansea, GB) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After reading 'Mosquitoe Coast' which I liked very much,I wanted to try another novel and I chose 'O-Zone'. Although the basic idea is good, I am really disappointed with the story as a whole. Paul Theroux could have done a lot better. It feels like the author was motivated by his own story at the beginning and then ran out of real ideas. The book is far too long, divided into chapters where nothing really happens He keeps jumping from one or more characters to the other(s). There is no real flowing in the story and I enjoyed only one bit of it: when Fizzy gets kidnapped by 'aliens'(good chapter!). I don't know if I am going to finish up to the end as I have started a new boring chapter, a cliché love story between Hooper and Bligh. My goodness, this book is really hard going!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and disturbing view of the future, 2 Sep 2001
By A Customer
I read this book several years ago and lost my copy, so I'm buying another one. When I read it, it seemed very far-fetched, about a youth who had no social skills and related better to his computer than to people. Now, it all seems frighteningly accurate. Can't wait to re-read it.
