Among Madmen

It took me 16 years to get to this book, and it was worth it. I wish Starlin did more work today, his excellent Marvel work made me hunt this down.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tautly written little novel. No, it's not The Stand but, then again, one was enough. (Oh, that's right, King found it necessary to re-release The Stand with an additional 400 pages added to an already too long book!) Anyway, this story dealt with the day to day life of a small group of people who have managed to survive in a world gone mad, literally. Something had occurred that caused most of the population to go insane. Sometimes, while watching the news, I think that may already have happened to the real world.
