My rating: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/107206846">5 of 5 stars

I really liked this book, my only issue is that it may end up as a bit of a victim of its own hype. I had heard loads about this book before I read it, so I had very high expectations going in.
It was very well written, but it wasn't as unputdownable as i thought it was going to be. I found it really reminiscient of The Stand by Stephen King, with a large cast of characters whose stories all cross over each other at various points.
After finishing, i'm glad that this is the first part of a trilogy!!
