Title: Disappointing.
Review: I was a BIG fan of Smith's A Simple Plan many years back and so I was really looking forward to reading his follow-up to that great book. Huge disappontment.It starts slow and goes nowhere fast. It drags and due to the nature of WHAT is in the ruins, is repetitive to the point of irritation. There is not much character development though there are only 6 main ones we must contend with (+ what they find) throughout the book. One never finds out the WHY or the HOW; one must just accept everything that occurs. If, however, you are into descriptive passages of gore, you might like this book.I did finish the book; that's all I wanted to do was get through it. No surprise ending either. In a couple of words, a bust! Don't waste your time OR money.
