The Apocalypse Seven is an interesting book, and not what I had first expected. Yes, there are classic tropes of post-apocalyptic fiction, but there's also a lot more. The main seven characters are all from different backgrounds, with different skills, abilities, and foibles. This makes for many interesting interactions when they have to work together to try and work out what has happened to the rest of the world. Being one of seven people left alive (probably, maybe?) would be a challenge for anyone, and the challenges are well displayed.
The third arc of the book has some unexpected twists and turns, which challenge everything you think you know about what's happened. 
An exciting read throughout, with a wide range of characters.
