Editing makes a difference
I liked the story and the characters but the editing made it hard to fully enjoy. I prefer audiobooks in which the chapters have a long pause at the end, as this book has. But, this was the first book I have ever listened to that made it very clear where the reader stopped for a break or the day and resumed and where re-takes were made and edited in. Both the volume and tone of the reader would change abruptly and annoyingly for either, OFTEN.

Love Logan, Taylor is a presumptuous ass.
LOVE the book except the Jennifer character who is supposed to tell us imbeciles the difference between right and wrong--because she is female and knows these things. I just was confused by the character's seeming hypocrisy, and this overall trend of having "strong women" in non-traditional roles but still playing mommy/the voice of reason/the moral compass. I wrote Taylor and asked him if Jennifer eventually becomes less of this. Evidently he thought I was mad she wasn't a "blood thirsty killer." Yup. Those are his words. So: Since I'd sooner douche with Drano than give this man another dime, let me be clear: GREAT writing, great plotting, intricate knowledge of topics, 90% great characters. My review of his work is mostly very positive. My review of Taylor? Just don't question his choices...he gets mean.
