Unsure how I feel about this... and unsure if I'll continue the trilogy. Definitely fast-paced and an easy listen, but I guess it has a lot of tropes that aren't necessarily my favourite.
The Creatures immediately put me off and then the ending, both with the far future and Ethan taking over the sheriff job, don't really get me excited to read more. Though I am vaguely curious as to how he handles that, still no idea if I'm curious enough to continue.
