Review: Well-Written--but totally bummed out
Rating: 1 out of 5

by the 100% negative view of humanity, and I can't try to bring this to an end, as the last of the series, Milepost, isn't out yet...Gosh, there's been almost nothing and no-one to like (well, maybe 10 year old Stephen?), and no hope. The only people left on earth are semi-insane Zaps, and the absolute dregs of humanity practicing inhumanities on their fellow survivors. I've read #1, then #0 (the prequel), and now this, #2. All ended leaving me depressed and hanging. I know this is fiction, but I know enough really decent people on this earth to believe the percentage of sick depraved humans among the survivors is skewed way to the top.I will wait for the last, #3 "Milepost 291" primarily in hopes of ridding my mind of the horribly negative picture Scott has painted of humanity and of life, and to see if I'll ever read anything else of his.Sorry, Scott. Was start with this trilogy a mistake, and did it unfairly paint a black wash over some brighter writings?
