Unlike any other "apocalyptic fiction" book I've read. In a unique, fresh choice, Noise details the events almost immediately after the collapse of society. The advice dispensed is sound, the actions and choices of the characters feel like they really have an impact, and the whole book is a breeze to get through.

Didn't get on too well with this to start with - I found the protagonist to be whiny and self-obsessed - but the subtle dystopia gradually grew on me. The slow unravelling of comfortable middle-class expectations as economic depression hits, and the small acts of rebellion that slowly accrete into a larger revolt all rang true and the story held my interest even when the protagonist's philosophical ramblings didn't.

This reads like a manual for military tactics. Definitely not my cup of tea.
