I've very much enjoyed this survey; it's a sub-genre of literature that I appreciate but I don't believe that I've ever discussed it. And this has given me many more books to have a look at in the future (as if I needed that!)
I think that you're hardly alone there! And it was my other half that pointed out Random Acts... to me, for which I was thankful (for a given definition of thankful.)
Then go forth and read and then be thankful that the mentally impaired chimp is no longer in office.
I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing.

*nods* I think that was the very argument I had with Legolas. Note that I haven't read it yet, but that's what I thought of when he told me why it didn't cause that much of a reaction from him. Regardless, I think it'll hit home pretty hard for me.

Bitter, twisted and better than you.

The problem with post-apocalyptic stories is that there are so many which are utter crap.

I never thought of the Forever War as Dystopian but I guess it could be called that
