  Although the characters can feel like caricatures at times, this book changed the way that I think in many respects and has been a great motivator in my research, particularly when times are tough. One of my favorite books and would be included on any trip to a desert island.

  Stunning . A page - turner that also makes you think about society , man , relationships and political issues . A novel that deserves all the hype surrounding it.

  I have heard about Ayn Rand for a long time and usually in association with the genre Steampunk. Since my novel The Quest for the Last Crimefighter became available at Lulu.com and is in the Steampunk genre, I figured I owed it to myself to finally read the work of the woman said to have been the inspiration for it. Atlas Shrugged is a large, well all right, a huge book that is intimidating when seen. I picked up the 50th Anniversary copy, which is really the 35th Anniversary edition re-issued. From the first page, her words caught me up in a descriptive world like I've never read before. The way she brings the smallest things to life with her words is refreshing and absolutely astounding to read. The thought she had put into her every thought and then into this book, leaves nothing to the imagination except to picture the world she has created and it is breath-taking when you do. Take the time to read Atlas Shrugged, read it slowly, get every word and become a fan of Ayn Rand.
