Just finished this novel last night. Why are so many authors so keen on having a crappy ending where all the good guys die and the bad guys triumph?? It just completely puts me of reading any more books by that author. It spoils the whole story and I feel cheated. Don't think be buying any more of his books. I felt the same way after watching "Eden Lake".
It was great -- until the very end.
I won't mention the name of the book just in case anyone at any point wants to read it.
