Peopled by larger-than-life heroes and villains, charged with towering questions of good and evil, Atlas Shrugged is Ayn Rand's magnum opus: a philosophical revolution told in the form of an action thriller--n ominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read . Who is John Galt? When he says that he will stop the motor of the world, is he a destroyer or a liberator?

You will know the answer to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the amazing men and women in this book.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

    I ordered three items from this seller, and one was damaged in transit (the seller is not at fault for this). However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.

    The seller Orion Tech LLC is one of my occasional shopping sites. This purchase I had a problem, the only one so far. The books were packed well, shipped quickly and just as described. But this was not the book I ordered. I sent two photos of the book received and the ISBN code and I received a prompt refund. I bought two books the third book was free! I am still delighted being an Orion Tech Books customer and will be shopping at Orion Tech Books in the future. Thank you.

  • Great Reading!!

    First of all, the book is in pristine condition, absolutely perfect! The plot is more engaging than I could have imagined. I am near the end, alas, and I can hardly WAIT to see how it ends. At the same time, I can't bear the thought that it will be over. I find the book SO engaging that I purchased the CliffsNotes to improve my understanding AND to help me keep all the characters straight. (I recommend keeping notes or you'll lose track!) Yes, it is a long, long book, but think of it as three medium books! Atlas Shrugged is a GREAT read, a timeless classic and food for thought at this time in history! You will fall in love with the "good guys" and love to hate the "bad guys!" What a literary delight!

  • Brilliant and prophetic.

    More relevant today than ever before. Rand was a visionary who foresaw the decline of western values that led to the world we live in today. Political correctness run amok. Morality turned on it's head. Once we idolized greatness now we hail Caitland as a hero. Spoiled, self indulgent parasites like Paris and Kim dominate the airwaves. More importantly one need not exert great effort to innovate and create and produce value just sit back and watch mindless entertainment and draw the government assistance that is looted from the declining number of people who still actually produce. The continued popularity of Rand's work shows that not everyone is content to take the blue pill and march in lockstep much less drink the cyanide Kool Aid the looters are serving up.

  • Atlas Shrugged...what can I say? Should make you think.

    Loaned my years old copy out and needed to buy a new copy. In this day and age, it's a good book. Must remember where Ayn Rand came from and what she was warning about.
