Kudos to the author, A.A. Pencil, for coping with so many characters and back stories in one book. Even for a well organized person it must have been a challenge to keep things straight.The introduction of the large number of characters made the first 50% of the book slow going. Honestly, I had to force myself to keep reading.Fortunately,I plugged along and found the last half far more entertaining and suspenseful.For those who enjoy bloody action the writing was vivid and exciting. The cast of characters was reduced in horrific ways.One thing should be revised. The author shows a lack of knowledge when it comes to shotguns. Shotguns don't shoot large bullets but pellets (sometimes large ones but still pellets,not single bullets). To gun enthusiasts scenes of bullet wounds caused by shotgun blasts disrupt the intended flow. Other minor editing would easily improve the book.The twist at the end comes without warning and rewards the reader for pressing on. I enjoyed The Reunion once I passed what seemed to me to be a lengthy slow moving assembling of characters.
