Brooks brings us into the post-apocalyptic world possible after his "The Word and the Void" Novels. The world was well-considered with everything from water-sources to shelter considered. The world matches with the future that John Ross would dream about in the original series. The characters seem interesting, and each have a past of their own that helps to color the narration (3rd person).

My only complaint was that just after midway through the book the elves literally come out of nowhere. The chapter just starts with the narration of an elf in a (seemingly) completely different world, and it really threw me off. I had to make sure I was reading the same book.
