I found the story good, it had believable characters who did believable things. Even in the parts where the author was clearly making snide remarks about ideas, they were still fairly subtle. Everything felt like it had a soul, never did I feel like I was simply reading propaganda.

I liked the ending very much, it was rather a perfect irony that, in Johns desperate attempt to find meaning and reject "brave new world", he ended up destroying something with great meaning, someone who cared for him, his friend. John failed to see that, even in the hellish "brave new world" there was still some good, a good that he rejected along with the bad.
