It's 2013. We've all been smacked in the face with That Horrible Event by now. What's your take on it? How are we all connected? I'm posting this review for all three volumes of this account here because it might help elucidate exactly what Mr. Krall is talking about. Some reviewers don't get it. I do, and no, it's not linear. It's formally challenging. No worries here, and I'm definitely no rocket scientist.You don't need to be. All catastrophes are internal and external. No one can witness the last twelve years of our lives and not care. Everyone is affected. These books illustrate the culture of fear at its inception. That's what it's all about.My only question is why "Your Cities, Your Tombs" is only in paperback. Is it a formal finale for the series? I still cannot figure this one out. But everything written in Krall's pages demand attention to format first. Yes, there is a plot. Yes, there is rich character. But the form... Hmmm...Okay, I hope everyone is still confused. Great books and I'll leave you with two words: "Einstuerzende Neubauten."
