Lead section Consists of mostly plot summary. The second paragraph, about reception and interpretation of the book, should be expanded.

Background It's initially a little confusing about whether Market Forces is a part of the trilogy. Perhaps the third installment could be named, stating that it is the Mr Morgan's fourth novel?
- How's this? maclean (talk) 22:19, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
Style and themes the word "extrapolated" is repeated once too often.
The plot synopsis is a little too long.

This book is a piece of shit
[edit]I know it's not very NPOV, but seriously. The protagonist is irredeemable, the extrapolation of out-of-control free market capitalism is hamfisted (and I'm practically a communist). The prose is passable, I suppose is a fair thing to say. Fuck this book. 80.71.135.96 (talk) 18:35, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
But, hold on. Why not tell us how you really feel?193.62.111.10 (talk) 12:35, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
