Little Engine Go

So i found this movie really intresting. I like the sci-fi future post apocalyptic setting, it was really intresting. Im not sure why alot of people didnt like this movie, cause it was really good.

The plot: Hundreds of years after a cataclysmic event destroyed civilization, mysterious young Hester Shaw emerges as the only one who can stop the city of London -- now a giant predator on wheels -- from devouring everything in its path. Feral and fiercely driven by the memory of her mother, Hester joins forces with Tom Natsworthy, an outcast from London, and Anna Fang, a dangerous outlaw with a bounty on her head.

Peter Jackson produced it and he also wrote the screenplay. It feels like a peter jackson film. I feel like he should of directed it.

Anyways its a really great post apocalyptic movie that has sci-fi, action, adventure and is in the future.

The unique storyline.

Hands down, one of the best books I have ever read!

This is the first Crime book I have ever read in my entire life, and I've got to say it will also be the last. The last, due to the fact that no other crime book past, present or future, will ever come anywhere close comparing to the absolutely astounding story of Red Plus Zone.
All I wanted to do with my days was read this book. When I was at work or busy with house chores etc, all I could think of was this book, and what it would be like to live in the post apocalyptic world described by the author, what it would be like being Sam McCall as a post apocalyptic detective. The book is so well written and the story line is so captivating that I connected with all of the characters, I felt their emotions and I felt their pain, and at times I felt like I was actually living in the post-shattered world (which isn't a good thing when you ask a waitress in a cafe what time zone we are in).

OMG!! Where to begin?!? I put off reading this novel for so long because it is post-apocalyptic, which I'm not interested in AT ALL. However, it was AMAZING!! The setting jumps throughout various periods of time and follows several different characters. The novel is full of intertwined stories and details and includes flashbacks and several recurring themes. There is no way to explain how well-written this novel is. I loved it so much!

Amazing book

My Favorite set of books this is, the first gets you really into it as its a take on post apocalyptic America that I certainly had never read before, the personalisation of it (the way its written in first person) makes it feel so much closer to the heart so that when Katniss hurts, you feel it you really feel her struggles etc. Its extremely well written and I can't reccomend it enough.
