I picked this book up because I heard it was in the same world as his Janz's novel, Children of the Dark (which I loved).  This was my second attempt at this book, you can tell this book was written earlier in Janz's career, the writing isn't as good and the characters are very one dimensional and unlikable.  The biggest positives are the creatures, the Children and the Night Flyers.  We get to the action early on in the book and it doesn't let up at all.
