Book #4: Children of Men

Fourth book I read since May of 2008:

Children of Men by P.D. James

More nuanced and less dark than the movie. This book suffers from some semi-believable plot twists and an ending that strains credulity. Better than the movie; although I'd give the cinematic version a whirl just to see what is absolutely the darkest vision of the future I've ever seen. Makes Blade Runner look like Fantasyland.
