  • Loveable characters? Yes

3.0

I forgot how bleak this series is, and also: SO SAD. Anyway, this installment does a great job of portraying religious faith during the ending of the world (sort of). I loved the characters, and it's a slow build harrowing read. I feel like you could give a kid  Robopocalypse as a read-alike if only for the same sense of civilizations slowly falling apart. But Robopocalypse isn't quite as depressing, I think.
