Hmmm, I'm intrigued and very glad I have volume two sitting beside me. Usually, I dislike apocalyptic/survivalist stories because they just make me anxious. Still, I love how you can see how different characters react to terror/trauma, it's fight or flight. Adrian is hardcore and callous and thinking way too fast for the others, but, even though I wouldn't like him in real life, he's my favorite character so far. Also, I like how the story is trying to steer away from Adults vs Kids and acknowledges that no one has it all together, y'know. The pacing's fast, and I'm always eager to turn the next page. A good first volume though I have some criticism with Ben, as of now, he's just the generic gentle giant.
