I liked the characters, although I didn't fall in love with them the way I did with the trilogy characters. If I'm being honest, I'm not sure that this particular addition to the series really added anything, except a good story that Grant wanted to get out. There were some GREAT scenes, and who doesn't love reading about zombie sheep? I understood the rationale behind adding in the chapters in the Maze, but they really ruined the flow of the story, and other than meeting some characters we knew from Newsflesh, they didn't add much to the overall world.

I enjoyed reading this, and now I'm sad that I've consumed everything in the Newsflesh world... so it's probably time for a reread!
