Dark at the Crossing by Elliot Ackerman

3.0

This was good, but rushed. I liked the tone, setting, and themes that Ackerman was working with here. But he rushes through the whole plot in a week, which makes the relationships sort of absurd. A bunch of adults in a war zone acting like, well, like characters in a book. What makes this strange is that this isn't even very plot-heavy! He could have drawn it out, or added more, I dunno. It's a solid 3.5/5 sort of novel, but not on a par with something like A Constellation of Vital Phenomena.
