Damnation Alley - Roger Zelazny


I’d been waiting years to give this book a try and finding this audio version was the perfect opportunity.

What a disappointment. Apart from the poor reading the book itself is an almost complete vacuum of plot and character. The lead is a humourless Hells Angel who pretty much does nothing but drive and kill a ridiculous amount of people. Any and all supporting casts are dropped or killed. The prose is stilted and uninteresting. The plot is non-existent and I was bored throughout.
