Rating:  Summary: not bad Review: I found the ending a sort of cop out, but I think it also helps to make the point that people are upset about the treatment of animals but really do nothing to change it but daydream. I found Animal Rights and Pornography a better read because it is much more edgy and dark, but I think they compliment each other well.
Rating:  Summary: you haven't read this book yet? Review: If you're debating as to whether or not you should buy this novel, quit now. Of course you should, and share it with everyone you know.
Rating:  Summary: A Suberbly Radical Political Thriller Review: This is a riveting tale of a revolutionary out for justice. A mind-numbing mixture of intrigue, suspense, romance and comedy while two bumbling FBI agents struggle in vain to apprehend their fugitive. An ex-Special Forces veteran's crusade against the American culture of violence against our nonhuman brethren enlightens the reader with eye-opening detail, enhanced by surprise humor, depending on the reader's perspective. In a timely format, nearly ripped from the headlines, Tobias explores the most vile aspects of humanity, spiced up by a sensuous love affair between the hero/fugitive and a reluctant sympathizer.A unique amalgam of Ingrid Newkirk's Free the Animals; Terry Gilliam's film, 12 Monkeys; and the action/adventure of Indiana Jones and James Bond, Rage & Reason will do for animal rights what The Monkey Wrench Gang did for ecology. Tobias' Felham is a radical Holden Caulfield (of Catcher in the Rye fame) for the 1990's with a mission to save Mother Earth. Animal exploiters of the world might heed Felham's warning: Hell no hath no fury like a woman scorned. That woman is Mother Nature, and She's pretty irate.
