I wasn't sure from the book's description online that I would enjoy this one, but once I started reading I found myself absolutely fascinated by the fast moving plot, the interesting characters, and the unusual nature of the "crisis."Set in a not very distant future, when the United States and much of the world is perpetually at war, when all the reports on the constant news feed are bad, and the cities are blacked out at night, the main characters struggle with their own despair and then find themselves caught up in a larger conflict. There are some interesting themes depicted in the book, including the question of whether mankind can be totally happy, and if so, what other characteristics of our human nature would we have to give up to reach that happiness?
