58. "Anyone else reading The Twelve?"
In response to In response to 0

          

This shit's a letdown for me so far. It feels like he's reusing the same plot points from The Passage but with different characters. The plot is still entertaining enough that I'll stick with it but I don't think anyone could argue it's better than the first one.
