I often have problems with Joe Hill's works....while he's clearly a talented writer, so many of his books are just filled with unlikable people that I find them difficult to get through. This project is different though....although people do bad things in these books, I think he's done a great job of making it clear that those are just bad choices, something all of us make at times. Despite the widespread death, this series is ultimately positive, as we see people working to make better choices and the consequences of bad ones. Very enjoyable.
