Maybe the fastest-paces book I've ever read, to the point that there's almost a kind of dark comedy to how quickly horrible things happen in such rapid succession to each other.

I think the story suffers a little from the breakneck speed, needing more time to stop and breathe, but overall just a fantastic concept executed pretty well.
