4.0
The story is an easy read with likeable characters despite the hard truths behind what is occurring, the plaque. The underlying discussions of what it is to be human, and religion in general is done well. The same conversations are repeated throughout the book, but new information typically comes from them. I really enjoyed the complexity of the character, Pestilence.
Overall enjoyable dark romance about the end of the world.
