Review: fully developed world
Rating: 5 out of 5

I am currently on part five of this fantastic series.  Prior to starting part five, the author suggests reading this prequel. It explains the origins of the virus and roles key members played.  The world of the story is fully developed with its own science.  To be honest, I had to read it a second time and mentally trace the steps leading to the origin of the pathogen, but it is a short story and I read it twice in one sitting. The complex nature or the pathogen 's origin implies a rich world that does not insult the intelligence of the reader.  Though complex, it is never boring and makes an intriguing foundation to an addictive series that I can't put down.
