![]() But I find this story hard to follow when the story was switched into first person point of view. ![]() Why did she go into first person point of view? As many people have stated before about this series, the characters tend to be a cookie cutters and I wasn't too bother by that because the third person point of view helped distinguish them. Now all they have to do is tell the people outside that everyone is save and if you got your flu shots, you're good! I was looking forward to something more devastating I guess, something that would take a little more time to fix.īut I even could have lived with that if not for a problematic technique that Lorentz implemented with this final book. Betrayal everywhere, power struggles, not knowing who to trust in this situation, unsupervised, horny teenagers who want to hook up even though there's a deadly flu going around.īut I'm sorry to say that it all just seemed to go downhill for me after the revelation at the end of book 2: that the virus has mutated into a flu strain that they miraculously have a vaccine for and that people already vaccinated can't get. But I understand that Lorentz was trying to explore the chaos that would erupt with this kind of situation. The second book was a little clunky and whole sections could have been edited out. There's some kind of bomb, people are getting sick, they can't leave the man and not everything is as it seems. I find myself conflicted after finishing this book. ![]()

The book begins with the God Butcher story (issues #1-5), which I’d heard nothing but good things about. I’m sure I don’t have to spell this out, but just in case you have no idea how the math works out on this, it looks like: 5+1+5+1+5+1=18.Īnyway, I’m not here for basic math I’m here for epic tales of gods and war - and there are plenty of those here. ![]() That’s why 18 issues was the exact right number for this collection - you’ve got five issues, plus the single issue spacer afterward, and this pattern is repeated three times.
