I like stories wins up everything in a nice little package and the characters live happily ever after. That is not how The Warehouse ended, so it's hard to like it. I'm left not even sure if one character is symbolic only or still a real person truly in love.

The beginning was slow as they build the near future world where global warming has made it nearly impossible to be outside, where a mysterious black Friday massacre had led to the end of nearly all brick and motor stores and an Amazon-like megalith rules the market and MotherCloud is the new version of a company town where you live, work and play in a lifestyle that complety revolves around their monster regional warehouses that load your next order and deliver it via drone.

Hart had some inconsistencies in his world. For example we are informed that all of the products in the warehouse are arranged in such a way that no two similar products are anywhere near each other so no customer accidentally gets the wrong product based on a warehouse wiring picking the womg one. That actually mags a lot of sense. But later in the book our protagonist ends up being delayed by trying to find the right puzzle, or had to look the book section, contrary to how he previously told us the warehouse works.

Gibson us the evil CEO of Cloud. Midday of the book I'm convinced he is the devil. But at the end when he's supposed to reveal how evil he truly is, we'll maybe I've fallen for his capitalist bullshit because I honestly think he is a lot closer to the savior of the world he claims to be than the lobster his author paints him as

All in all I can't recommend, but I think others might absolutely love it.
