Exciting and suspenseful. Strong female lead, and good portrayal of teen angst/adolescence. Would like to know more of backstory until reaching Stillhouse Lake. Too short!

Once again, not disappointed. Vivid characters, strong relationships and no easy answers. Respectful recognition that both men and women can be smart, tough, dedicated and at the same time sensitive, flawed and very human.

Well written, gripping, and very believable, I didn't want to put it down.  Human nature was accurately represented and the cast of suspects were cleverly arrayed.

I enjoyed each volume of the trilogy. They develop an intriguing concept using believable characters who respond credible to the incredible.

Believable stories and solid characters.  This book, like the others in the series,moves along at a rapid pace, weaving new characters in smoothly and new situations in with finesse.  There were very few typos or grammatical problems.  I have read 5 so far and I am enjoying the series.

I insist that the main characters in a book I am reading be likable, intelligent, hard working - someone who I would like to hang out with. This book is peopled with such characters. Some violence and romance but not boringly graphic and doesn't slow the plot down to a snails pace. Hurray! I look forward to more books in this series.

I loved the characters, and the story was so compelling - tough decisions were being made in a world gone mad; and with a lifetime of consequences. A really nice job of writing about believable characters caught up in incredible circumstances.

I really enjoyed this book. The author is clearly very familiar with police procedures which gives authenticity to the plot and makes the action sequences very convincing. The central romantic relationship builds up gradually and both characters are likeable and believable. The minor characters are also interesting. I really hope we hear much more from this author in the future.

The books are not only authentic in detail but plausible.  The characters are deep and flawed.  They are likable and make you want to know them.  The action is fast paced and completely enthralling.  You cant put the book down.

Hard to put this book down
The characters become real people who you come to care about. The story reinforces the strength and courage of the human soul.

Not many authors out there that could pick a relatively minor character out of a series of now four novels and write an entire book about that person that is as good or maybe a little bit better than what they have already done. This was a good book, with strong, believable characters. A solid story that was pretty darn heartbreaking for the most part, but again about as realistic as should be expected. Caleb Hicks is a remarkable character and he rings true; hopefully we will see much more of him in the coming books.

The characters are well drawn and believable. But the plot uses coincidence too.  Ive had a good time reading it.  As book 4 Ill be looking for the earlier ones too.

The characters are easy to identify with and formidable. The story lines are interesting and provoking. The thought of Earth as being overpopulated is a very real and scary possibility.
