This was a very quick read, but the length did not take away from any of the deep character development that we come to expect in lengthier stories.  I also like that the writer let us inside the mind of his protagonist, Trent, and let us know what he was thinking.  You don't see this a lot in current stories, but it's often featured in some of the classic writers of the genre, like Stephen King.  Although the post-apocalyptic storyline has been done quite a lot in both book and film, the author manages to make this world his own with clever dialogue, exciting action sequences, and an ending that clearly will not please everyone.  Personally, I enjoy endings where everything isn't necessarily wrapped up with a tidy little bow.Recommended to both fans of the post-apocalyptic genre and those who just love a great action/survival story with memorable characters.
