Exiting this book a third of the way through. The writing style is so staccato it makes things feel disjointed and choppy. I can push through an inelegant writing style for a good story though but I'm not getting that here either - everyone we meet is a grumpy misanthrope and every other action they take reminds them of their "tragic past". Maybe it gets better but the transition to action made me enjoy this even less so I'm going to move on.
When I started this series I was a bit hesitant as the 1st episode was a little weak and predictable, however I now see Casey was just priming his readers for an ultimate brain hemorrhage. Episode 4 has thus far been the most entertaining in the series. The group is on the verge of completely ending, losing but a few smaller characters that leaves the reader feeling remorseful and pained. I have but 2 short episodes left in Season 1 an eagerly look forward to the brain devouring madness show more ahead of me. show less
This is listed as a thriller novel, but I just didn't feel it. In fact, I would add that I felt it was more of a Young Adult book. The story starts off wonderfully introducing the main characters and location. From that point, I felt bogged down with extra daily routine, that didn't seem to have anything to do with any one thing in particular. I found myself skipping pages at a time to see if anything interesting happened. I was not a bit surprised about the ending, and felt more let down show more than thrilled. The writing itself was well done and easily read, with descriptive passages where needed, just a bit mundane and boring with what I felt were unnecessary details. show less
This volume definitely threw me for a loop. We lost some incredible characters but gained a genuine image of those remaining. The story progresses at an excellent rate setting up each new scene where the previous ended. I cannot wait to devour the next season.
