review:
A meh story, like eating a lettuce that fell out from an amazing sandwich. The entire book tells a mopping story about some people who just happen to know each other across the previous two books, and after humanity has been wiped out. Their biggest problems are two - yes just TWO - crazy Mad Max style villains who don't actually do a lot. There was the big back story of the titular Maddaddam, but even that turned out to be more of a gossip episode and a shoulder shrug rather than the amazing sci-fi bomb that dropped in Book 1 or the hippie nature-loving commune that survived in Book 2. Disappointed in the book - and also in the realisation that I was not the audience for this book.,
