A rather interesting piece of genre fiction. Refreshingly organic in its plot progression, but neither was it predictable. Incredibly intense and engaging, staying with you right to the very end. 
There were however some instances of telling without showing; the people's love for Shigeru being one of them. But all in all, a very enjoyable read.
