I first saw the movie “The Power” (1968) with George Hamilton. Then I read the book. This just geared me up for “Waiting.” What I found was one-third s-e-x, one-third ecology, and one-third plot like The Power.
However, I still enjoyed reading the book and thinking of the possibilities that could have been in it. I was not bogged down with how this could never happen or how the leap of faith took place to determine that the bad guys had to be part of the club from the beginning.
I took an anthropology class in which the instructor said if you think that the Neanderthal has disappeared, just walk down in the city and look at some of the people.
Though I enjoyed the book, I will buy a sequel if there is one.
If, for some reason, you were less than thrilled with this book, try “The Power.”
