Sure, it's important to keep people hooked, and sure you want them to keep coming back, but at points in this series, and especially this book, it felt like he was purposefully dragging his feet. So he made the decision to explain tings early, instead of dangling the question for a long time, which is what this author has done.

He says when they were crafting the core narrative, as to why the power went out world wide, he asked if there is any real reason why the characters who knew what happened and how, would not tell people. A great example, is in an interview with JJ Abrims about the show Revolution. However, usually when you tell a story, it's best to get to the point as soon as possible. I know this kind of topic is largely unexplored, beyond the old conventional means, which is one of the reasons I like this series so much.

The author does lead up to it, and sets it up well, and it is largely fulfilling, but I can't help but think there must have been a quicker way to get to this point. This was confirmed, when this book started, and we don't get the conversation that we been expecting until the last 1/5th of the book. I normally don't give such low story ratings, but the main issue I have with this book/ series is that the author set up the central cliffhanger in the end of the 1st book, and he makes it sound like the main character is doing what he is doing to get the answers from the main bad guy, and although it was interesting to hear the same events from the other perspective in book 2, it seemed like largely a delay tactic, to stretch it out as long as possible. So, I'm a bit conflicted with my ratings, for a few reasons, specifically the overall and the story, the audio narration performance his hands down great.
