I admit, I found the premise intriguing but didn't think there would be enough substance to keep my interest for long. So I read the sample, then got up to do other things. After a couple hours, though, I started wondering what was going to happen next, so I bought the whole book. And pretty much read it in a day. I found some of the environmental descriptions repetitive (the sun smear, for example), but then I got to thinking that, well, it's raining all the time and that's got to be pretty repetitive. So, after a while, the repetition kind of reinforced the dreary life of the characters.Characters were well-developed and I thought the love interest angle was handled with remarkable subtlety. Plot twists had me care what happened to the characters and were inventive.Overall, a good book and a quick read. Will look for more from this author.
