"Realistic in its portrayal of the lasting effects of the ordeal for the survivors....The horrific actions undertaken by many of those trapped in the name of survival are disturbing but not gratuitous, and the question of morality at play in many of the characters' decisions is fascinating...a thoughtful and broad-reaching ending to a tale of surviving dire circumstances." --
Kirkus Reviews "Self-anointed king Marco remains a fantastic, complex character, and the extended denouement is rather poignant." --
Booklist "A chilling conclusion to a gripping trilogy." --
