Jeff C. (ozymandias) reviewed on 9/1/2011 + 11 more book reviews

Not a bad post-apocalyptic book. The basic premise is that San Francisco is home to artists in this Cozy Catastrophe, and they choose non-lethal methods to repel an invading army, turning their artistic skills into ways to demonstrate they *could* kill if they wanted, but choose not to to demoralize the army. This would be an amazing story -- but it relies far too heavily on supernatural events and magic -- for no reason, and no good justification. The book would read far better if the flimsy supernatural subtext was removed.
