I read this basically obsessively over two days. This is similar to the last Crouch book I read, Dark Matter, but this one was much better. Heavy emotional hitter that I will be chewing on for a long time. Very tense ending, the last 100 pages I literally could not stop reading, and it's probably going to take me a while to calm down and sleep. Lots of dark content in this book, and only a little hope. Great concepts.
