One of the best post-apocalyptic sci-fi novels I have read. I would recommend this book whole heartedly to anyone who likes this genre. I have read this book twice and, I am sure, will read it again.
Here's the bottom line: Swan Song is one of my favorite books of all time.

His efforts seemed to be too easily thwarted by the heroes, at times. He also seemed to have abilities later in the book ...
