His concept of a man battling others to the death for television was ridiculously ahead of its time! Intense and influential (Hunger Games, anyone?)

A little bit too dark and depressive for my taste. I felt like in the middle of overly manly action movie and it was not my cup of tea. Also, I'm not the one to be too much PC while reading, but some of the things in this book made even me a little uncomfortable. I liked the ending, it matched the tone of the rest of the book perfectly. Glad it wasn't longer, I would probably DNFed it if it was.
