2.5/5 stars 
 1. The main character - David is an immature nineteen year old without an understanding of what he is actually doing. He doesn't know where he stands but has single minded obsession with the female lead character - Megan. After a point, its plain annoying. 
 2. The entire story is more than sixty percent similar to first book. Except for some twists here and there, the story remains predictable till the very end and you can see it coming a hundred pages earlier. 
 3. The new Epics are really epic. The secondary characters from first book get better and we learn more about them here. The newer ones are easily forgettable. 
 4. The metaphors or similes aren't funny. Really. 
 5. David is extraordinary young man. Everything he guesses, comes right (most of the times). Even the ones that are really out there, also work in his favor. (view spoiler)[His justification for Megan's actions aren't completely logical. He convinces himself why she is "right". Only later he realizes the fatal mistake in his outlook on Epics. (hide spoiler)] After a point I just didn't care anymore for his theories and analogies. 
 6. It is a fun read with good action scenes. Even with the predictability, the book reads itself and moves in a quick pace. 
 The story however lacks complexity and never makes an attempt to side step from the easy path it takes. It became too young adult-ish with everything working out in itself in the last fifty pages or so. Hopefully Calamity will give us all the answers.
