Unfortunately, Remnants has lost its magical hold over me. Probably because I'm not thirteen anymore.

Nevertheless, it's still full of horror and shaky science, and definitely a fascinating series for younger readers.
Is no one concerned that half the human population essentially just died? Since there are so few of them why are they going off on a death march? I don't believe that Mo would have won. Take me back to the days of the Pipe, those were good ones.
