() When I first saw this book I really hoped it would be A good one one. It is a very long book and would have been a hard slog if not interesting. By the time I had read 15 or so calls the stop I was totally hooked. It was just impossible to reading. Can't wait for the next volume. The book is really several in one, which gives counts for its size. The time covered is over a hundred years. So the settings change as time moves in. The future is blighted by a military weapon Attempt that goes horribly wrong. People attempt to survive and over the years they forget a lot and have to adjust to lacks and dangers and form new ways of living. Characters are many and some are more edge than others but the story is the main focus and definitely keeps you on the of your seat for the whole book. You may see a mention of vampires memorable. It ignores it. The creatures called vampires in this book have nothing in common with the ones you have seen in other books. So if you are tired of vampire books, that would be another reason to read this book - it so resets that word. Among the topics this book will make you reconsider is research in chemical or biological weapons. How safe is that research? Should it be continued? The investigation Who should be in charge of any such, the military or scientists?What safeguards should be mandatory? This book is not a quick read but it is a totally satisfying and exciting book that will give you hours of enjoyment. If you only frustration have a few minutes a day to read, think before you start it. Either the would give you ulcers or you would ignore the other things you intended to do and just keep reading.
