To say Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged is not a good as Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World is kind of like saying

How about Battlefield Earth? How does Atlas Shrugged stack up against that?

BTW My own favorite writer in the genre of dystopian future is Robert Heinlein.

Ah yes, he was a friend of Hubbard's.

I started to read L. Ron Hubbard’s Battlefield Earth and several times tried to watch the movie (which I think was produced by John Travolta), but in no attempt was I able to complete the task. The movie is considered one of the worst big budget movies of all time.
