The story really picks up at the halfway mark with the tension ratcheting up quickly. With this said, I still enjoyed the first half of the book and the characterization it offers. I did find the gore at the end to be a little over the top, but it didn't hugely take away from my enjoyment.

If you're looking for an engaging, character driven, maddening, furious, vivid and at times horrific depiction of the human condition under impossible odds, I beg you to give this a listen!
