At times difficult to follow because every character has two or three names used interchangeably. The rules of the world are extremely mutable so when in a jam, the characters simly have to play a tune, whip out a heretofore unknown doo-dad to save the day, or call on another cultivation clan head to assist. The dangers are ever present but never really threatening. I’m engaged enough to continue to see where this quest is going though, so hopes are present but not high.

- The author, Annie Jacobsen, takes a worst case scenario of insane actors, lack of communication, slow-to-be-made decisions and weaves them together in a nuclear war that escalates from limited to full out superpower involvement. Told in a minute by minute fashion, she ratchets up the tension as people and systems fail mankind until the inevitable ending. Informative, depressing, but compelling in the telling.
