I enjoyed the dystopian social commentary in Rob Hart's "The Warehouse," so I went in to this, his follow-up novel, with high hopes. I wasn't disappointed - even though it was a quite different genre. As one who has first-hand experience with Twelve Step recovery, I can attest that the titular program is authentically rendered - with little to no sense of parody or satire. Rather, it's the circle in which the age-old question - can a person really change - plays out. I liked the voice of the first person narrator and although most of the other characters are rather one dimensional, this didn't lessen my overall enjoyment. While not exactly a page turning thriller, it has an engaging plot with enough twists to keep it interesting and engaging. I'm looking forward to seeing what Hart comes up with next!
