From Infynity Nick Linde's unique voice makes this book more like a screenplay. His style is unperfected, yet beautifully delivered in this tale of Randall Baker and his life-reflection quest. This book has been compared to Bret Easton Ellis' "Less than Zero" not only for the similarities in surface over depth, but also because both authors were very young when writing. "The Speed of Life" is a terrific first work from full-time student, part-time writer Nick Linde.
