The Enginer pictures life in a purely imaginary Fascist America. Despite the best attempts of the government and the United Nations to control it, an army of fiddlers, dodgers, and factorians operates an enormous underground economy supplying dissidents with terrorist weapons and support. Political correctness governs all speech and thought. Freedom is the freedom to do what you're told.
The Enginer of the story is Tom Dedlass, an ordinary citizen who programs computers for a living and for the dissident terrorist movement. It begins with the kidnapping of an American President to Iraq and ends, after a thermonuclear explosion over Rikers Island, on a note of hope.
This is a humourous, feel-good book with a little sex and plenty of violence. Good reading for people who remember when Americans were free.
