Rezensionen

Without Warning 1: Der Effekt von John Birmingham
Ein großer Teil der USA verschwinden unter einer unerklärlichen Energiekuppel, innerhalb dieser transparenten Barriere scheint alles menschliche Leben verschwunden zu sein. Vor diesem Hintergrund entwirft der Autor ein Endzeitszenario, das die Stimmung des 11. September 2001 beschwört. Leider ist es ein überaus plumper Roman, der fast ausschließlich auf Gewaltdarstellungen setzt. Ärgerlich ist auch der allgegenwärtige naive US-amerikanische Patriotismus.
